Beskrivelse
From the beloved author of Taste and written in real-time over the course of a year What I Ate in One Year is a heartwarming, heartfelt, intimate, charming, and delicious testament to the profound role food plays in our lives - and how it helps us find joy in the now.This book is an attempt to distil in prose, a year of my life into something that recognizes my past, present and future, all through the prism of food. It is a life in microcosm, about the passage of time and all the food that goes with it. Stanley Tucci's life has always revolved around food- eating it, talking about it, thinking about it. Over the course of 2023, he committed these moments to memory, recording his life in real time, in food. Through these daily entries, the dishes he eats with friends, with family and with strangers (who become friends across the table) - ranging from the mundane to the gastronomically sublime - serve as a prism for recollection, and for deeper thinking about family, life, love, death, regret and happiness.From jam sandwiches to haute cuisine, through disastrous home experiments and fluke kitchen successes, Stanley's food diary is more than a record of gluttony. In focussing on a single year, and with his inimitable humour, he recognises the ways his family life is constantly evolving, mourns what has already passed, and steels himself for what is to come.
