Whose protagonist eats better: Andrea Camilleri's or Manuel Vazquez Montalban's? Why not put that question to your readers?
Too right!
I am the wrong sex for a start, but I always wanted a wife like Paola. However, i don't think she really works as a character because as you say she is totally gorgeous, excellent mother to her 2 children, a professor of literature, reads avidly, always has one of those meals you describe whenever Brunetti happens in.......galling!
