About this listen
Stories and recipes from growing up as the daughter of revered chef/restaurateur Alice Waters: food, family, and the need for beauty in all aspects of life.
In this extraordinarily intimate portrait of her mother - and herself - Fanny Singer, daughter of food icon and activist Alice Waters, chronicles a unique world of food, wine, and travel; a world filled with colourful characters, mouth-watering traditions, and sumptuous feasts.
Across dozens of vignettes with accompanying recipes, she shares the story of her own culinary coming of age, and reveals a side of her legendary mother that has never been seen before. A charming, smart translation of Alice Waters' ideals and attitudes about food for a new generation, Always Home is a loving, often funny, unsentimental, and exquisitely written look at a life defined in so many ways by food, as well as the bond between mother and daughter.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

"A beautifully written celebration of food, home, and above all, family." (Jamie Oliver)
"So charming and beautiful." (Gwyneth Paltrow)
"The most delicious kind of memoir." (The Times)
The writing is a tad pretentious and the reader’s voice annoying and monotonous with the dreaded ‘ throat fry’ that seems to be popular these days with young women....god knows why...it’s just downright irritating! I doubt if I will listen to the bitter end.
Sadly not for me
