The Physiology of Taste is a series of epicurean meditations in which 19 th century magistrate and gourmet Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin reflects on the fundamental role of food in culture. Examining the whole range of sensations and feelings we experience through our relation to what we eat, his work is an invitation to find joy in food and develop our taste. He also defined a word that exists only in French (or was subsequently borrowed by other languages), poetically describing how the French think about food. “Let us understand each other”, he wrote, “Gourmandise is a passionate preference, well determined and satisfied, for objects which flatter our taste.” Reading The Physiology of Taste, we’ll start off our discussions with a classic in gourmet literature.

Literally born and raised with horses, Zoe leads a happy life at her parents’ racehorse stables, driven by the dream of someday becoming a
jockey like her father. To Zoe, nothing beats being with horses, especially her « best friend » Beautiful Intrigue, the stable’s prize mare,
who taught the child how to walk. When Beautiful Intrigue gives birth to a foal that Zoe names Tempest, the girl is the first to see in him
the champion her parents have been waiting and working for all their lives. The winner she will ride to victory. But Zoe’s dreams are
shattered one stormy night, when a panicked Tempest accidentally injures the girl, leaving her permanently “disabled”. Furious at life, Zoe
slips into despair and pulls her entire family down with her, especially her father, who is on the verge of losing everything. But with the
indefectible support of her family and the help of Seb, a stable hand with a gift for communicating with horses, Zoe will seek to conquer
the impossible, in pursuit of her dream.
