He literally stumbles across a small hand axe, an artifact from an earlier culture. He prepares a birthday luncheon for Florence and friends, and of course, readers are treated to the scrumptious details of the meal, leaving us all hungry if our stomachs are not full. Readers familiar with St. Denis will enjoy visiting with all the regulars and Bruno's dog Balzac. ( ) In this short story, St. Denis policeman Bruno is planning a birthday lunch for his friend, Florence, and searching for the perfect gift for her. Food and friends are at the heart of this story. For once, Bruno isn’t working in this short. The element of mystery is provided by the artifacts of the region’s earliest cultures. Like most of the Bruno shorts, it will be appreciated most by readers who are already familiar with the series and its recurring characters. Another short story from the “Bruno universe”. Unfortunately, like the later novels, this one didn’t have any appeal for me. A large part of it is basically simply a narrated recipe… “He beat the yolks and eggs together with a hundred fifty grams of sugar until they were creamy.” … and that really doesn’t float my boat, sorry. The rest is just plain boring. Moving on. Blog | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Gehört zur ReiheBruno Courrèges (13.5) Ist enthalten in
When not solving mysteries in his beloved little town of St. Denis, Bruno, the chief of police, likes to cook and share his meals with local guests and dear friends. For his friend Florence's birthday, Bruno is preparing a surprise. But, like much else in St. Denis, it's a communal effort, and one that Bruno pulls off with a little help from the countryside and the town. He finds an ancient hand axe in the ground during his morning run with his dog Balzac--it will make a spectacular gift--picks up newspapers for wrapping by the medical center, and gathers fresh nettles from by his chicken coop and thyme from his garden for soup and garnish. It'll be the perfect day for Bruno and his guests to celebrate their collective history. A Vintage Shorts original. An ebook short. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
