Reviews
Elizabeth Luard's prose is so colourful it transports you, and you can almost taste the food. You feel you're right there with the people she meets, from Maine, to Crete, Maui to France * Delicious *
A crucial element of any book like this is that you trust the person leading you. Luard passes the test completely * Daily Mail *
A romp through Luard's travels with food ... She knows how to tell a story, thanks to a life rich with colourful anecdotes -- Xanthe Clay * Sunday Telegraph *
Elisabeth Luard is the best living writer about the purpose, business, geography and anthropology of eating. Her Squirrel Pie eloquently, purposefully and honestly combines the how and the why of dinner -- AA Gill * Sunday Times *
Elisabeth Luard has packed in more experience of roving, living and cooking than any other writer. Now she brings together a lifetime of sublime and bitter moments in a merry masterwork, beautifully illustrated by her own hand * The Times *
