The characters and the story in this book are so rich! It is one of those books that leaves you so sad when it ends because you'll miss the characters like a good friends that have moved away and find yourself thinking of them, wondering what they are doing now! Definitely one of my favorites!

Life looks good for Caroline Ferrante, a charismatic, irreverant cooking teacher who has just landed her own TV show. But Caroline's past seems determined to undermine her future. The popular author of the epochal hits Looking for Mr. Goodbar and August returns with a New York story of mothers and daughters, food as metaphor, and--of course--love.

Early Rossner, the author AUGUST.
An American woman, a great Italian cook, travels to Italy & falls in love there. "Rissoto & romance. Rossner treats family life with a wise & witty touch." Good reading & good descriptions of Italian cooking.
