Joanne Harris is one of the most popular British novelists, possessing infinite charm; she is simultaneously fantastical and real, tender and witty. In 1999, her melodramatic "Chocolat" landed on the bestseller list. Thanks to the success of the film of the same name, the novel gained wild popularity.
The chocolate shop opened by Vianne in a small French town not only offers wonderful treats but also provides an atmosphere of celebration and makes one feel a zest for life once again.
"Chocolat" is a story about kindness and tolerance, about the opposition between innocent temptations and hardened righteousness. It is about the striving to find one's home and love, and most importantly, it is about being happy.
