Synopsis
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.
