If you have eaten too much during the festive season, fear not, for this witty anthology will allow you to taste of all manner of epicurean delights - Gatsby's parties, dinner in Lilliput, Saki's hilarious story The Byzantine Omelette - without adding a single inch to your post-prandial girth. Though, mind you, Bram Stoker's all-too-vivid rendition of Renfield's favourite foods - remember Renfield in Dracula, he who was partial to insects al dente? - may not be everyone's cup of tea. Diet, anybody?
