""There is nobody writing about food at the moment who’s committed to this level of immersion and it rings out in every line."" - Tim Hayward, Financial Times

""She has rightly won awards for her remarkable talent for telling stories that take the reader right to the heart of her experiences."" - Lisa Markwell, Sunday Times Magazine

“One of the most brilliant travel writers of her generation.” - Fuchsia Dunlop

Green Mountains is the final instalment of Caroline Eden’s ‘colour trilogy’, following on from her multi-award winning books, Black Sea and Red Sands.

Beginning in Armenia, moving northwards through Georgia and ending at the Black Sea, Green Mountains weaves together the enchanting geography and the cult of the kitchen that prevails within these two countries. Tales of testing hikes and unpredictable terrain are punctuated by the foods Eden eats for respite – citrus, herbs, flatbreads, nuts, apricots, mountain greens and magical cheeses – the recipes she shares and the stories she uncovers.

Sharing both the deep comfort and satisfaction of a meal served after a long walk, and the unique relationships she forms with her hosts, Eden offers readers rare insights into the culture and food of these two countries. With meticulously researched histories, a catalogue of more than 30 recipes from her travels, and rich, compelling stories, this is a travel book like no other.
