A romantic, erotic, gastronomic, historical, feminine novel and much more; just like life itself.
A book full of passion and delicious flavors that will touch your heart and even a few inches below it, and no less distance above it, to that brain which is undoubtedly the sexual organ par excellence.Years ago, while listening to the radio, Rosa decided to dictate her memoirs into a tape recorder, and she did it as a game, thinking that what she recorded would never be anything more than a handful of tapes that someone, friend or acquaintance, would listen to while laughing.
I have been one of the few lucky ones who have been able, until today, to know the narration of a life lived in the kitchen, seasoned with juicy recipes and full of love affairs, which shows us, with little intention on his part, the small history of Spain for more than fifty years. Years of struggle, heartaches and small pleasures that, if, as it happens to me, your gray hair has adorned you for too long, it will reflect you as in an old, somewhat distorting, fairground mirror. And if you are lucky enough to have a very long and happy life ahead of you, they will show you a society that may surprise you with a naïve vivacity and tolerance that many today insist on denying.
This book -my poor transcription of his words- intends to correct that unjust oblivion, that of his life and that of many others, making his memoirs full of passion and irony available to everyone.
Ah, don't forget to enjoy the recipes.
