Books to Inspire Hunger and Thirst


Books to Inspire Hunger and Thirst
Wine textbooks are crucial, but they may only rarely move you. What about books that teach you not only how to think about wine but how to feel about it?

It’s a tossup over whether my overstuffed apartment holds more wine or more books. The number of bottles tumbled about, particularly over the pandemic year, is rivaled only by the scattered stacks of volumes that sadly will never earn shelf space.
It would be foolish to ask which I love more. But if you insist, I can reluctantly imagine life without wine. Books? Impossible. To put it another way, if I am traveling or even heading crosstown, I panic over whether I have something to read, not whether I’ll have a bottle to uncork.

It’s odd how Portsmouth seems to produce or stimulate writers and stories. Conan Doyle was a penniless doctor in Southsea (grubby, tarry Pompey’s green seaside twin sister). Charles Dickens was born there. H.G. Wells toiled in a draper’s shop in Southsea and hated it. The city features often, with its grotesque, ferocious prostitutes known as ‘Portsmouth Brutes’  in Patrick O’Brian’s matchless series of novels about the Navy in Napoleonic Times, and of course in C.S.Forester’s currently under-rated ‘Hornblower’ stories. The murder victim (as he turns out to be) in Josephine Tey’s  extremely ingenious ‘The Singing Sands’ is a  young man from Portsmouth who used to love crossing Portsmouth harbour on the Gosport ferry, one of the great unsung delights of England. Knowing the ferry as I do, I’m not surprised. If I had time I’d slip down to The Hard now, and take the ferry again.
