We're delighted to be able to offer signed bookplates for this book.
This essay collection demonstrates why Diana Henry is one of the finest modern food writers in the English language.
The 52 pieces offered here have all appeared in Henry’s one dozen cookbooks, but as she says, “it’s great to have a book of prose without interruption from ingredients and methods.” From the story of what she learned from the neighborhood around her first London apartment, to the concluding essay “Missing New York,” Henry writes without pretense. What we get instead is a vivid sense of discovery.
As longtime customers know, we've been happily recommending Diana Henry books for decades. Around the Table is a wonderful way to introduce cooks and readers to one of the keenest pleasures of her writing.
