Dona Flor is fascinated by local cookery and has set up a cooking school which gives her a decent living. When they met, Dona Flor was a sweet and demure lady, living with her rather obnoxious, widowed mother. Vadinho is a totally incorrigible rogue, without any moral scruples whatsoever. It starts with the death of Dona Flor’s first husband, Vadinho. And it certainly is a fascinating story, superbly told by Amado. It is certainly the best known, thanks to the film. Many consider this to be Amado’s best book (though I personally consider Tenda dos milagres (Tent of Miracles) to be superior).
