'Explores the enduring and passionate bond between the culinary and the carnal' People
A personal ode to the pleasures of food and sex, Isabel Allende brings her magical storytelling powers to exploring the intertwined sensual arts of food and love. Blending personal reminiscence with folklore from around the world, historical legends, and memorable moments from literature, Allende spices her narrative with equal portions of humour and insight, and offers suggestions, both ancient and modern, for everything from luring a lover to reviving flagging virility.
Assembling a feast of fascinating facts about the aphrodisiac powers of food and drink, Aphrodite is celebration of sensual life filled with joy and imagination and an irresistible treat for the senses.©1998 Isabel Allende (P)2020 HarperCollins Publishers LLC

Critic Reviews
Like a slow, seductive lover, Allende teases, tempts and titillates with mesmerising stories and legends about gluttony – sexual and otherwise
A passionate storyteller ... Holds the world spellbound with her tales
