Encompassing a multicultural history of seduction through food, ancient and modern stories about sex and eating,titillating recipes (try marraqueta,a wickedly-shaped Chilean bread,a failsafe aphrodisiac Polynesian stew,and Reconciliation Soup, guaranteed to restore peace between lovers] and tantalising revelations of the author's own sensual odyssey,it is the author's fascinating guide to all things erotic - and edible.

At the same time, thousands of children in Britain rubbed their eyes and climbed from their beds. Within hours they joined the crocodile lines of young children making their way to the nearest railway station, headed for the "safety" of homes in the country. They were and forever will be known as the "evacuees," part of the greatest movement of people that Britain had ever experienced. Now, for the first time, No Time to Wave Goodbye tells their story-through letters, pictures and the narrative of Ben Wicks, a former evacuee himself. Ben Wicks was born in London's East End in 1926.
