Gourmand

Rescued from obscurity by students who tracked down the reclusive author in a remote cabin in the Austrian Alps, this collection of alpine fairy tales marks the return of the enigmatic writer Chunhua Luli. The main characters in these stories are wild animals, but the tender lessons they teach cut right to the heart of the human condition. In the main story, a young fox becomes obsessed with a butterfly, only to discover the dangers of falling in love. Other themes explored include the benefits of relentless ambition, the importance and impact of beautiful objects, the pursuit of serenity, and the power of positive thinking. Forty years after his remarkable debut, Luli reminds us once again that we are all animals, connected by an expansive and ever-changing ecosystem much larger than us.

Main Notes: Raspberry, Citrus pulp, Coconut palm sugar, Madame Isaac Pereire, Sandalwood, Tropical punch and stardust.
