Journey to the Land of the Green Fairy
Tania Brasseur follows the trail of this plant, the alcohol derived from it, and the people who produce it in the Val-de-Travers – the cradle of absinthe.
This book, illustrated with evocative photographs, combines botany, history, art, accounts from craftsmen and cooking recipes to create a comprehensive picture of the green fairy.
Did you know that before the First World War, a third of Pontarlier's inhabitants worked in the absinthe industry? And that François Mitterrand was offered an absinthe soufflé when he visited Neuchâtel, right in the middle of Prohibition? Whether you like absinthe or not, the stories of the Green Fairy leave no one unmoved.
- A journey of discovery to the Val-de-Travers and the Green Fairy
- Informative and varied encounters with absinthe producers
- Botany, history, politics, production: a comprehensive book
- Recipe ideas
