Dear Olivia by Mary Contini (Paperback)

BOOK1071P

Mary's fascinating follow-up to Dear Francesca is now available in paperback. Mary Contini writes to her daughter Olivia to tell the story of her great-grandparents, the humble Italian shepherds who emigrated to Edinburgh and then helped to transform Britain's food culture. Sharing some of the recipes that they brought over, this is a mouth-watering memoir of family and food. Woven together from personal oral histories and extensive research, this is the moving, startling and inspiring story of the founders of Valvona & Crolla.

“Dear Olivia, we have inherited an ethos of work, a glorious heritage of family and food and most important, a faith in God. This is the final piece of the jigsaw, the untold part of your heritage that illuminates your past.”
