Ilh us in 1925 is a booming town with a record cacao crop and aspirations for progress, but the traditional ways prevail. When Colonel Mendon a discovers his wife in bed with a lover, he shoots and kills them both. Political contests, too, can be settled by gunshot...

No one imagines that a bedraggled migrant worker who turns up in town-least of all Gabriela herself-will be the agent of change. Nacib Saad has just lost the cook at his popular caf and in desperation hires Gabriela. To his surprise she turns out to be a great beauty as well as a wonderful cook and an enchanting boon to his business. But what would people say if Nacib were to marry her?

Lusty, satirical and full of intrigue, Gabriela, Clove and Cinnamon is a vastly entertaining panorama of small town Brazilian life.

Perfect color and size.
Size: One Size, Color: Biscotti, Size: One Size, Color: Biscotti
Gorgeous! Bought the biscotti color on sale at $209 but would have paid full price! I’m 5’2 and carrying it as a shoulder bag is perfect. I thought the strap might be a tad too long so super happy!

Kate Spade Handbag
Size: One Size, Color: Warm Acorn
Very pretty. The color is beautiful, easy to match with formal, casual, and office wear. I imagined it a little bigger from the photos, but it's a comfortable size and fits a lot. Good quality leather, it has a lining and drawstrings. I love it! ❤️

Classy bag!
Size: One Size, Color: Black
This is a beautiful, high quality Kate Spade purse. Got it for my college daughter for a Christmas gift and she loves it! It’s the perfect size to carry a 16!oz water bottle and/or a small umbrella along with a wallet and phone. She literally said “this purse is going to be life changing!” She’s been carrying just a small wristlet for years and I guess she never has what she needs. This is a perfect, classy piece for her as she transitions to the next phase of life.
