The Love Season
“What could be easier?
—Marguerite Beale, self-exiled chef in The Love Season Nantucket author Elin Hilderbrand is making dinner. This is not the Black Angus steak cheeseburgers and Bartlett corn she would normally serve her husband and three children on a steamy summer day. This is a very special dinner—the same dinner her protagonist, Marguerite Beale, makes in Hilderbrand’s fifth novel, The Love Season.
A fictitious chef who has given up cooking to punish herself after her best fr...iend’s death, Beale crafts the dinner only because her godchild is coming for the first time—to learn more about her dead mother.
Hilderbrand is making the dinner for twelve people who helped inspire the novel, which she originally titled “The Dinner Party.” The group is gathering at 5 Quince St., in the circa 1730s home where the novel is set.
At 11:30 a.m., Hilderbrand darts into the fish market to pick up smoked mussels, which she will serve with a homemade aioli.MoreLess
