Product Description

Product Description

The Sicilian Kitchen is a captivating blend of family memoir and travel guide, intertwined throughout with recipes reflecting the simple earthiness of Sicilian cuisine. The author, Michele Di'Bartolo, is an Australian-born, second generation Sicilian, who grew up in Brisbane in a tight-knit Sicilian family. She tells the story of her family's journey, starting with her beloved Nonna's arrival in post-war Australia, through her own childhood in suburban Brisbane, to her holiday of discovery back to Sicily. The writing is perceptive and insightful, and perfectly captures the pull of cultures that many migrant families feel. Illustrated throughout with beautiful, nostalgic photography, this book is a very special celebration of Sicilian culture, family values and, most importantly, food.

Format:Hardcover
A superbly enjoyable read, following the author back through stories of her recent family history as told to her by her Nonna, and in turn enticing the author to visit Sicily - where the family had left two generations before. Stories are interspersed with Sicilian recipes and photos - some of the family and some of Sicilian surrounds. I found this story to be very warm and also humorous. An interesting juxtaposition of Sicilian traditions merging into modern Australian life. Highly recommended for a weekend read or would make a great present as it's so nicely presented.
