Sumérgete en la tentadora historia de Vianne Rocher, una forastera que llega al tranquilo pueblo francés de Lansquenet y abre una chocolatería justo enfrente de la iglesia. En plena Cuaresma, el Padre Reynaud ve en ella una amenaza para su rebaño, desencadenando una batalla entre la tradición y la indulgencia. La tienda de Vianne se convierte en un refugio para secretos y sueños, culminando en un Festival de Chocolate que divide a la comunidad. ¿Podrá la solemnidad de la iglesia competir con la pasión pagana de un éclair de chocolate? 'Chocolat' es una novela rica y astuta donde el chocolate se erige como un placer transformador y una cuestión moral.

Joanne Michèle Sylvie Harris is a British author, best known for her 1999 novel Chocolat, which was adapted into a film of the same name. Born in Barnsley, Yorkshire, of a French mother and a British father, she was a teacher of French for 15 years and had published three novels during this period before the surprise success of Chocolat enabled her to write full time. Since then she has written over 30 books in a number of genres, including fantasy, psychological thriller, novellas, short stories and non-fiction. Harris' books often feature themes of women's empowerment, folklore, motherhood, community, outsiders and outcasts, and food.
