Beschreibung
On the eve of her ninth birthday Rose Edelstein bites into her mother's lemon-chocolate cake and to her horror discovers that she can taste her mother's emotions in the slice. Suddenly food becomes perilous. Anything can be revealed by any meal - truths about her mother's life outside the home, her father's strange detachment and her brother's clash with the world. Yet as Rose grows up, she realises there are some secrets even her taste buds cannot discern. THE PARTICULAR SADNESS OF LEMON CAKE is a luminous tale about the heartbreak of loving those whom you know too much about.
