‘I couldn’t order this fast enough!’ — Nigella Lawson ‘[Jonathan Nunn’s] writing makes a huge tangible, day-to-day improvement to people’s lives. He’s also a really gifted prose writer.... Like, how many writers are there on the planet who combine those two things? Almost nobody. That’s a big reason why he’s become such a cult figure.’ — Ned Beauman ‘[London Feeds Itself] explores how factors such as rising rents and gentrification are changing food culture, often for the worse – while also celebrating the ingenuity of the communities and creatives who feed the capital. Its arrival, arguably, heralds a new era in food writing, where the politics of the plate are taken as seriously as the flavours.’ — Coco Khan, Guardian 'Nunn is impressive. He has built something serious, with diligence and a rare depth of expertise.' — Finn McRedmond, New Statesman ‘[London Feeds Itself] look[s] beyond conventional notions of food as a commodity to consider how it fuels and lubricates social relationships.... [A] humane and often positively mirthful exercise in popular sociology.’ — Keith Miller, Literary Review
