Book 1: Five Quarters of an Orange
From the author of the mega-popular novel Chocolate.
The most important thing is hidden inside.
Framboise received a strange inheritance from her mother. Her brother inherited a farm, her older sister a wine cellar full of amber-sunny bottles, and Framboise an album with culinary recipes. It's not much... But on the pages of the notebook, mixed with old recipes for various delicacies, she finds mysterious notes. Secrets and confessions of her mother. The life she so carefully hid from her children during the war and occupation. Small joys and sorrows, secret thoughts, childhood grievances, and a sincere confession of a woman who was afraid to love. So many years have passed. So many questions remain. The answers to them are in this old diary. It's time to uncover the terrible secrets of the past.
Jay is a famous writer who has lost his inspiration and life's guidelines. He lives in his childhood memories, which always include summer and old Joe with his magic wine and fantastic stories. When Jay finally decides to visit the "place of power" of his childhood, instead of Joe's house, he finds only a ruin - and a few bottles of his special wine that can magically change lives. Then the man suddenly decides to leave everything behind and buys an old house in the French town of Lanskne-sous-Tannes. It seems that now he will finally find his lost inspiration, recognition and sky-high fees. But suddenly, Jay is faced with a choice: what kind of life does he really want? One that has no place for fairy tales and dreams, but has fees and fame? Or the other, full of everyday joys, simple things and love - as sweet as old Joe's special wine?

Viane Rocher and her daughter Anouk have come to give the townspeople an unprecedented luxury - a candy store. The local priest is outraged and gives his parishioners a choice - church or chocolate. If only the sweets and chocolates of the woman whose hair smells like the winds of distant lands weren't so delicious! If she could not guess what exactly everyone who comes to her shop needs! Then so many dramatic events would not have happened in this town...
Discover the recipes for happiness from Joan Harris. Immerse yourself in the world of chocolate magic, and you will realise that even with the help of sweets you can change your life - of course, if you have a good heart and good intentions.
