Chocolaty Delicious

Ahhh, Paris

By Alison Sieloff

Published on April 23, 2008

Author Joanne Harris has dipped back into the world of Chocolat with her new novel, The Girl with No Shadow. This sequel catches up with chocolatier Vianne and her daughters, Anouk and Rosette, in Paris, where they all live now under different names. What’s more, Vianne no longer makes chocolates — that is, until Zozie enters their lives. This captivating character inspires Vianne to get chocolaty again, but Zozie’s intentions aren’t pure. Pick up a copy of The Girl with No Shadow and find out how the story finishes. And better yet, head to the Ethical Society of St. Louis (9001 Clayton Road, Richmond Heights), where Harris discusses and signs copies of her novel (but only the books purchased at Left Bank Books or at the event) beginning at 7 p.m. Admission is free; learn more information by calling 314-367-6731 or visiting www.left-bank.com.
