Synopsis

When Vianne Rocher opens a chocolate shop in the quiet French village of Lansquenet, she immediately clashes with the stern local priest, Father Reynaud. As Lent begins, Vianne's decadent treats become a symbol of temptation and a source of conflict, dividing the community. This delightful novel explores the power of pleasure and the clash between tradition and change.
