The Club of Angels
About this book
Luis Fernando Verissimo's The Club of Angels is an irresistible, enticing book about the sin of gluttony—as irresistible and enticing as the exquisite meals prepared within. With wit and dark humor, The Club of Angels tells the story of ten well-to-do men who meet every month to dine fabulously and celebrate their friendship and singularity. When their leader Ramos dies of AIDS, a mysterious man, Lucido, is taken on to recreate the men's favorite's dishes, giving them a gastronomic thrill like no other. The tale of bewilderment and death that follows creates an unforgettable literary experience! This mordant satire, with its hilarious characters and witty dialogue, touches on all segments of Brazilian society.
