Following on from his first book, a very moving, tear jerking autobiography: "Madeleine - Losing A Soul Mate to Cancer", Clancy has brought together an exceptional collection of recipes, presented in an easy to follow format, for the whole world to tryThroughout the entire book one ingredient predominates and is clearly the mainstay of not only the recipes but is the essence of life itself. In an interview not long before her passing, Madeleine was asked: "What is the most essential ingredient for the preparation of good food?" Her emphatic answer: "Love!" Whilst the Mauritius Australia Connection web site is now a Mauritian Community Portal web site for the Mauritian Community in Australia Clancy and Madeleine always want to make available the very best of Mauritian Cuisine in print.

This unique cuisine is a combination of French, African, Malagasy, English, Indian, Tamil, Telegu, Muslim and Chinese gastronomic delights that will bring to your table a whole new spectrum of tastes and flavours. Evolving from this, the Mauritian Creole cuisine is also unique in that it evokes a subtle and flavoursome blend of its constituent cultural mix, supercharged with a rich culinary heritage.It has been a long held dream of Madeleine and Clancy to share their passion for Mauritian Cuisine worldwide. This book does just that and will also share with you the rich culinary history of Mauritian Cuisine, honouring the people who left their own motherlands to call Mauritius home.

Book Description
“Dralyuk’s new translation of Sentimental Tales, a collection of Zoshchenko’s stories from the 1920s, is a delight that brings the author’s wit to life.”—The Economist Mikhail Zoshchenko’s Sentimental Tales are satirical portraits of small-town characters on the fringes of Soviet society in the first decade of Bolshevik rule. The tales are narrated by one Kolenkorov, a writer not very good at his job, who takes credit for editing the tales in a series of comic prefaces. Yet beneath Kolenkorov’s intrusive narration and sublime blathering, the stories are genuinely moving. They tell tales of unrequited love and amorous misadventures among down-on-their-luck musicians, provincial damsels, aspiring poets, and liberal aristocrats hopelessly out of place in the new Russia, against a backdrop of overcrowded apartments, scheming, and daydreaming. Zoshchenko’s deadpan style and sly ventriloquy mask a biting critique of Soviet life—and perhaps life in general. An original perspective on Soviet society in the 1920s and simply uproariously funny, Sentimental Tales at last shows Anglophone readers why Zoshchenko is considered among the greatest humorists of the Soviet era. “A book that would make Gogol guffaw.”—Kirkus Reviews “If you find Chekhov a bit tame and want a more bite to your fiction, then you need a dose of Zoshchenko, the premier Russian satirist of the twentieth century . . . Snap up this thin volume and enjoy.”—Russian Life “Mikhail Zoshchenko masterfully exhibits a playful seriousness. . . . Juxtaposing joyful wit with the bleakness of Soviet Russia, Sentimental Tales is a potent antidote for Russian literature’s dour reputation.”—Foreword Reviews “Superb.”—Los Angeles Review of Books
