The Telling Room: A Tale of Love, Betrayal, Revenge, and the World's Greatest Piece of Cheese by Michael Paterniti
3.0
This book was pretty interesting (albeit it is yet another "stunt-journalist cum man-child needs to have an adventure" book). Paterniti is a good storyteller. His writing is evocative .. I could always picture (and taste!) the scenes and settings he described.
It is ultimately an interesting story .. but I did find the book a little unsatisfying in the end. Though I think that is because of what happens with the cheese producer, rather than any failing of Paterniti.
If you like cheese, like France or like stunt journalism books (like I do), you will find this a quick breezy read.
Many thanks to the publisher and to Net Galley for providing an ebook review copy.
