Dancing with the Moon A Story of Love at the Villa della Luna
Readers enchanted by The Secrets of Pistoulet" will delight in the further adventures of Mademoiselle J. In Dancing with the Moon" (originally published in 1997 as The Legend of the Villa della Luna"), our heroine embarks on another voyage of self-discovery and finds herself the guest at a magnificent seaside villa in Italy. At the Villa della Luna, Mademoiselle J. meets a grieving man whose heartache has rendered him completely isolated. With the help of her three Italian hostesses, she reaches out to him, and in this act of selflessness, she learns to love again. As in Pistoulet, Mlle J. encounters magical recipes that contribute wisdom and fortitude to her journey. Readers are invited to partake in the mystery of such delicacies as The Minestrone of Memories and Reflection, for those who need to revisit their past in order to move on to the future, and Pasta Vivante, for those who are afraid of the passion of life. Dancing with the Moon" is a vivid tactile experience filled with interactive elements such as gatefold doors, concealed treasures, tarot cards, and passports. More than a book, it is an open-hearted invitation to learn and to love.
