  <default_description>Vianne Rocher and her 6-year-old daughter, Anouk, arrive in the small village of Lansquenet-sous-Tannes--&quot;a blip on the fast road between Toulouse and Bourdeaux&quot;--in February, during the carnival. Three days later, Vianne opens a luxuriant chocolate shop crammed with the most tempting of confections and offering a mouth-watering variety of hot chocolate drinks. It's Lent, the shop is opposite the church and open on Sundays, and Francis Reynaud, the austere parish priest, is livid. &lt;p&gt;  One by one the locals succumb to Vianne's concoctions. Joanne Harris weaves  their secrets and troubles, their loves and desires, into her third novel, with the lightest touch. There's sad, polite Guillame and his dying dog; thieving, beaten-up Jos&#233;phine Muscat; schoolchildren who declare it &quot;hypercool&quot; when Vianne says they can help eat the window display--a gingerbread house complete with witch. And there's Armande, still vigorous in her 80s, who can see Anouk's &quot;imaginary&quot; rabbit, Pantoufle, and recognizes Vianne for who she really is. However, certain villagers--including Armande's snobby daughter and Jos&#233;phine's violent husband--side with Reynaud. So when Vianne announces a Grand Festival of Chocolate commencing Easter Sunday, it's all-out war: war between church and chocolate, between good and evil, between love and dogma. &lt;p&gt;  Reminiscent of Herman Hesse's short story &quot;Augustus,&quot; &lt;I&gt;Chocolat&lt;/I&gt; is an utterly delicious novel, coated in the gentlest of magic, which proves--indisputably and without preaching--that soft centers are best. &lt;I&gt;--Lisa Gee, Amazon.co.uk&lt;/I&gt;</default_description>

The priest was very evil. I was surprised that it seemed to be set in rather modern times but the priest's role, or the ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/29559441">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Liked the book better than the film. The book reflects the threat traditional French clerics felt toward a mysterious single mother who moves to a small village and opens a chocolate shop across the street from the town's cathedral. Her lack of guilt and clear sensuality are symbolized in the chocol...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/23460060">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[So. I finished it. Finally. My thoughts? Well, I didn't hate it. But I sure was hoping to like it more than I did. With a name like Chocolat, I expected it to be, well, delicious. And perhaps other readers find it so.
