Isabel Allende brings her magical powers as a storyteller to a very personal level and with a special charm to the intertwined and sensual arts of food and love. By mixing personal memories with the folklore of the world, historical legends, and memorable moments of erotic literature and other types, Allende enriches his narrative with similar portions of humor and insight. Combining a banquet of fascinating facts about the aphrodisiac powers of food and drink, Allende serves them with convincing admiration and due irreverence. She offers suggestions, both old and modern, to attract a lover, light the sexual burning, prolong the sexual act, reactivate the decadent virility. In the caldero of history, she informs us about the lascivious appetites of all, from Emperor Nero to Catherine the Great to the notorious Madame du Barry of France.
