Joanne Harris at the Edinburgh International Book Festival
Vianne Rocher is back, but trouble could be brewing in Lansquenet-sous-Tannes. Joanne Harris revisits the world of Chocolat 20 years on. In The Strawberry Thief, life has settled down for Rocher, but the death of a local florist brings fresh upheaval to the village, including a new chocolate shop – conflict, or worse, could be waiting. Dip into Harris’s expertly crafted world in this event chaired by James Runcie and filmed live at the 2019 Edinburgh International Book Festival and enjoy an unrivalled sensory experience.
