A Healthy Appetite Pairing Bundle

Original price was: £40.09.Current price is: £35.09.

For a book about hunger, illness, desire and eating, we chose a lusciously rich wine. The Priorat is an assertive wine, in everything it does. At 15% ABV, this is one of our strongest. The moment you pour yourself a glass, you’re greeted by rich aromas of fig and cherry, and a bright red cherry colour. On the palate, this wine is indulgent and full, giving you plenty to chew on. The notes of spice combine with the rich fig to make a wine that is warm and comforting.

At the BookCellar, we are massive fans of A Healthy Appetite; it was our September Book of The Month. We couldn’t imagine a wine better suited for this brilliant book about a woman who is inundated by desire, after she thought her life was over.

A Healthy Appetite

After a decade subsumed by a cancer diagnosis, Hannah is now thirty, existing in a hinterland between life and death. Her boyfriend Scott has become more of a carer than a lover, and - with no job, no plans, and no more options - she has resigned herself to no future. But then she's given the opportunity to join phase one of a clinical trial that might just save her. Almost immediately, she feels different; that evening, her appetite returns. And it keeps growing. Now Hannah is hungry for life. A committed vegetarian, Hannah suddenly finds herself craving meat - but her new hunger isn't limited to food. Now she wants everything. As new and suppressed desires surface she becomes reckless, destructive, and deceitful. It's the miracle drug she's been waiting for, but at what cost?
