Anyone who read Virginia Woolf's "To the Lighthouse" could almost taste Mrs. Ramsay's famous beef stew, just as all fans of the Harry Potter books dreamed of trying the legendary butter beer. Food in books sometimes evokes genuine emotions and is strongly associated with the characters from these stories. This assumption is based on the series of photographer Charles Roux "Fictitious Feasts" about feasts and dishes described in the works of world classical literature.
