Dysfunctional father & daughter on French wine trip - what could possibly go wrong??? I thought this book was kind of a mess.The author starts out with a vivid scene in which she appears to be simultaneously disgusted by and thoroughly afraid of her father. This scene takes place several days into the trip, so then we have to backtrack and see how we got there. When we get to the point in the narrative where the scene actually takes place, the behavior does not seem. N. Wallach said Ugh - stay away!!!. A corked wine is a wine that has gone bad - it is rancid, vinegary, and undrinkable; a bad wine and one that should either be thrown out (if found at home), or sent back for a replacement ( if in a restaurant or wine shop). After finishing this book, I thought that this was a remarkably good choice for the title of this book. This book is corked - it should not have been published,.
