"What makes Izzo's work haunting is his extraordinary ability to convey the tastes and smells of Marseilles." -The New Yorker "Our last true romantic, Jean-Claude Izzo transmits warmth to his readers, as if granting them a mouthful of pure love." -Le Point (France) "Just as Raymond Chandler and James Ellroy made Los Angeles their very own, so Mr. Izzo has made Marseilles so much more than just another geographical setting." -The Economist, "What makes Izzo's work haunting is his extraordinary ability to convey the tastes and smells of Marseilles." --The New Yorker "Our last true romantic, Jean-Claude Izzo transmits warmth to his readers, as if granting them a mouthful of pure love." --Le Point (France) "Just as Raymond Chandler and James Ellroy made Los Angeles their very own, so Mr. Izzo has made Marseilles so much more than just another geographical setting." --The Economist, Praise for Jean-Claude Izzo "A real delight." --Andrea Camilleri, author of the bestselling Inspector Montalbano series "[Izzo's] essays...reveal a man of deep feeling and humanity." -- The Guardian "What makes Izzo's work haunting is his extraordinary ability to convey the tastes and smells of Marseilles." -- The New Yorker "Mr. Izzo was a marvelous food writer...His books are filled with winning descriptions of Provencal meals run through with the flavors of north Africa, Italy, Greece." --Sam Sifton, The New York Times "Just as Raymond Chandler and James Ellroy made Los Angeles their very own, so Mr. Izzo has made Marseilles so much more than just another geographical setting." -- The Economist "In Izzo's books...Marseilles is a ' ville selon nos coeur ,' a city in tune with our heart...A cosmopolitan, maritime city, greedy, sensual and warm." --Michel Samson, Slow Food "Our last true romantic, Jean-Claude Izzo transmits warmth to his readers, as if granting them a mouthful of pure love." -- Le Point (France)

Synopsis
From the father of the Mediterranean Noir genre. A short sublime book on the three things dearest to Jean-Claude Izzo's heart: his native Marseilles, the sea in all its splendor, and Mediterranean noir--the literary genre his books helped to found. This collection of writings shows Izzo, author of the acclaimed Marseilles trilogy, at his most contemplative and insightful. His native city, with its food, its flavors, its passioante inhabitants, and its long, long history of commerce and conviviality, constitute the lifeblood that runs through all of Izzo's work. Reminiscent of Henry Miller's The Colossus of Maroussi and the lyrical essays of Antoine de Saint-Exup ry and Albert Camus, as uplifting and touching as Daniel Klein's Travels with Epicurus , this slender volume will appeal equally to gourmets who delight in the strong flavors of Mediterranean cuisine, to those travelling on the Riviera (or arm-chair travelers who wish they could), and, naturally, to aficionados of noir fiction., Available for the first time in English in Howard Curtis's brilliant translation, this collection of personal essays shows Izzo at his most contemplative and insightful. He writes beautifully about the city he loved, the sea to which he belonged, and the literary movement that made him famous., Available for the first time in English in Howard Curtis's brilliant translation this collection of personal essays shows Izzo at his most contemplative and insightful.
