Jonathan Grimwood
Editorial director Francis Bickmore has bought world rights in The Last BanquetBookseller 29/6/12, set in 18th-century France, from Jonny Geller at Curtis Brown. Bickmore said: "This gripping, bawdy, gluttonous tale is punctuated by recipes cooked by our hero, ranging from Three Snake Bouillabaisse to Wolf's Heart Pickle. Grimwood is brilliant at conjuring the smells, tastes and sensations of this most colourful historical period. People are going to want to devour this novel."
