    Summary: 
    Poet Charles Lamb described the pineapple as "too ravishing for moral taste . . . like lovers' kisses she bites-she is a pleasure bordering on pain, from fierceness and insanity of her relish." From the moment Christopher Columbus discovered it on a Caribbean island in 1493, the pineapple has seduced the world, becoming an object of passion and desire. Beloved by George Washington, a favorite of kings and aristocrats, the pineapple quickly achieved an elite status among fruits that it retains today. Kaori O'Connor tells the story of this culinary romance in Pineapple, an intriguing his.
