Biography; Autobiography: general; Cookery, food & drink

A sharply crafted and unflinchingly honest memoir ('simply the best memoir by a chef ever. Ever.' Anthony Bourdain) about the search for meaning and purpose from one of America's most recognized chefs and up-and-coming literary talents.

'Magnificent' Anthony Bourdain

A sharply crafted and unflinchingly honest memoir. This is a rollicking, passionate story of food, purpose and family.

Blood, Bones & Butter follows the chef Gabrielle Hamilton's extraordinary journey through the places she has inhabited over the years- the rural kitchen of her childhood, where her adored mother stood over the six-burner with wooden spoon in hand; the kitchens of France, Greece, and Turkey, where she was often fed by complete strangers and learned the essence of hospitality; and the kitchen of her beloved Italian mother-in-law, who serves as the link between Hamilton's idyllic past and her own future family.

'Evocative...dazzling...beautifully written' New York Times

Perfect for fans of Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat.

Reviews for Blood, Bones and Butter: The inadvertent education of a reluctant chef

Magnificent... Blood, Bones & Butter is the work of an uncompromising chef and a prodigiously talented writer. I am choked with envy -- Anthony Bourdain My favourite book of the past few years, a thrilling and visceral personal memoir Financial Times A rhapsodic, profane, wonderful, imperfect memoir... every bit as rich and satisfying as the marrow bones the author roasts at Prune Wall Street Journal The food memoir of the year Guardian Evocative... Dazzling... Beautifully written New York Times
