As Meat Loves Salt

"I once hunkered down in my poky Florentine hotel and missed much of the city because I was so engrossed by Maria McCann's "As Meat Loves Salt.""

"Bowled over by Maria McCann's 2001 historical novel As Meat Loves Salt, I made its promotion something of a personal cause celebre."

"This was the rare book that had me waking at nights, in a sweat and fretting over a character."
