Gourmet Rhapsody by Muriel Barbery
An elderly, reclusive epicure leaves behind a manuscript cataloging the sensuous memories of the tastes that shaped his life; after his sudden death his widow discovers the book and sets out to recreate the elusive final flavor that eluded him, a small quest that unfolds into a tender meditation on memory, desire, the meaning of pleasure, and how food can hold a lifetime of feeling.
