HTML: 'Monsieur Pamplemousse and his faithful dog Pommes Frites are true and original comic inventions' Guardian Monsieur Pamplemousse, first-class gastronome and inspector of food, has been recruited to sample the appalling cuisine at the inappropriately named 'Hotel du Paradis'. Not an easy task, since the hotel is owned by his Director's formidable aunt, Louise, and the utmost tact is required. But Monsieur Pamplemousse is not one to shirk a challenge and so, with the ever-faithful bloodhound Pommes Frites at his side, he sets forth on his mission. Once in the vicinity of the hotel, Monsieur Pamplemousse hears curious tales about the extraordinary effects of the hotel's food on its guests: strangers suddenly become best friends and passionate embraces abound. Then Pommes Frites breaks loose from his bedchamber to ravage the local canine ladies and Monsieur Pamplemousse finds himself on the receiving end of a heavily-loaded baguette. Clearly something is amiss and, donning his investigative hat, Monsieur Pamplemousse embarks on some serious detection... 'Engaging mix of farce, detection and fine cuisine' The Times .Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Michael Bond is, of course, better known for his Paddington series of children's books. Hopefully no one ever decides to read this one out loud to their children or grandchildren. M. Pamplemouse is assaulted by baguettes, manhandled by a public toilet and assaulted by the female members of a marching band under the influence of a very powerful aphrodisiac. The story is a bit confused but hilarious. M. Pamplemouse and Pommes Frites make a charming pair and I found this one a lot of fun. ( )
