MFK Fisher is widely recognised as one of the finest writers on food and the pleasures of the table. Over the years she spent much of her time living and travelling around France, and ruminating - wisely, entertainingly, and with a deep and well-informed affection - on French food, French manners, French places and, of course, the French themselves.
