"A delectable comedy of manners." --Boston Globe The Ridolfi are a Florentine family of long lineage and little money. It is 1955, Italy is still struggling back after the war, and the family, like its decrepit villa and farm, has seen better days. Among the Ridolfi, only eighteen-year-old Chiara shows anything like vitality. But it's a vitality matched by innocence--a dangerous combination, to herself and to all who love her. Chiara sets her heart on the bull-headed Salvatore, a brilliant young doctor from the south who resolved long ago to be emotionally dependent on no one. Stymied, she calls on her resourceful English girlfriend, Barney, to help her make the impossible match. And so ensues a comedy of errors, in which guileless lovers, with the best of intentions, considerable charm, and the kindest of instincts, succeed in making one another thoroughly and astonishingly miserable. "An exquisite mosaic, where every tiny piece is part of a world." --A. S. Byatt, Threepenny ReviewBinding Type: Paperback

Smooth, plump oysters with great taste....
I've tried several smoked oyster brands, and this is the best by far. Not as many chewy bits as some brands. Plump and smooth oysters with a great taste. The chili pepper isn't extreme. Very happy with purchase.

Otter Kingdom Premium Smoked Oysters with Red Chili Pepper in Pure Olive Oil, 3-Ounce Pack of 12
They were shipped in a box that prevented any damage and they arrived promptly after I ordered them. These Otter Kingdom Premium Smoked Oysters with Red Peppers in Pure Olive Oil are excellent quality oysters. I have loved oysters for decades and I have tried several brands of all types of smoked. I gave the Otter Kingdom brand a try because I like a little red pepper spice in foods. These have an amazing flavor with heat that doesn't burn and a nice spicy flavor. It definitely enhances the smoked flavor of these oysters. I went through half the box in a few days. I will be buying these again soon.
P.S. After several cans they definitely have a nice kick. Especially if you want some heat without losing the desire to keep eating them. Worth every penny. I set them up to come every three months.

Extra spicy + high quality
Super high-quality. Only four stars because they should say extra extra spicy. Wow. Putting hot sauce on these might cool them off!
