Summary: Mouthwatering!!!
Review: This is such a FUN book. It is a story about love, deception, family, tradition and... COOKING!I fell in love with the characters, and was very happy to see leading ladies everywhere! It was also very nice to be able to have a quick look at old fashioned recipes, and understand the process of creating them. Finally, this book has enough drama, love and tragedy for a movie... and Im very happy it became one, which, by the way is also very good, and captures the real essence of the book. ************************************************************
Este es un libro muy divertido. Es una historia sobre el amor, la decepcion, la familia, las tradiciones y sobretodo... la cocina! Me enamore de los personajes y me dio mucho gusto ver a mujeres protagonistas. Ademas, fue muy interesante el leer sobre recetas antiguas y entender el proceso de creacion de diferentes alimentos. Finalmente este es un libro con drama, amor y tragedia dignos de una pelicula...y me da mucho gusto que se haya hecho una tan buena, que en verdad capta la esencia del libro.

Summary: Has anybody read good Spanish literature?
Review: When I read most of the reviews here I was truly in shock. I sincerely urge the persons who wrote them to read authors like Vargas Llosa, Alejo Carpentier, Garcia Marquez, Borges, Jorge Edwards, Cortazar, etc, etc. Latin America has been prolific with great literature. Do not waste time with this book, please. Estoy segura que los adictos a la verdadera y rica literatura en espanol estan de acuerdo conmigo.

Summary: Delicious
Review: When situated in the historical perspective, reading about exotic food tastes and recipes results really astonishing. Besides, the power that the smell and taste of the recipes gives to the love story make you feel not only hungry but really desperate to find this special one that will make all your senses travel that far. Laura Esquivel has the gift of exciting every single desire from your soul and body and she actually does it with this book.
