À propos de cet audio

YALSA, Best Books for Young Adults

The #1 best seller in Mexico in 1990, Like Water for Chocolate is a romantic, poignant tale of family life in turn-of-the-century Mexico.

Tita is the youngest daughter of Mama Elena, the tyrannical owner of the De la Garza ranch. As the youngest, she is expected to remain single and stay at home to care for her mother. So when Tita falls in love, Mama Elena arranges for Tita's older sister to marry Tita's young man.

As punishment, Tita is forced to bake the wedding cake. The bitter tears Tita weeps while stirring the batter provoke a remarkable reaction among the guests who eat the cake. It's apparent then that Tita's culinary talents are unique.

Ce que les critiques en disent

So much love, heartbreak, comedy. Absolutely adore the language and expression of food through this story. Gertrudis is my favourite!

I really liked it.. it was a slow tale that I wouldn’t describe as extremely eventful but I found it rather calming.
