Title : A delicacy - Muriel Barbery - Book

Summary :

He is the world's greatest food critic, the Pope of gastronomy, the Messiah of sumptuous feasts. Tomorrow, he will die. He knows it and he doesn't care: at death's door, he is searching for a flavor that lingers in his heart, a flavor from childhood or adolescence, an original and marvelous dish that he senses is worth far more than all his feasts as an accomplished gourmet. So he remembers. Silently, sometimes frantically, he sails through the twists and turns of his taste memory, he dives into the casseroles of his childhood, he roams their beaches and vegetable gardens, between countryside and perfumes, smells and flavors, fragrances, aromas, game, meat, fish and first alcohols... He remembers - and he doesn't find it. Not yet.
