– Sette
“A nice, enjoyable story, with many tidbits that food lovers will find irresistible.”
– La Gazzetta dello Sport
“An easy style and a kind of irony able to understate the tradition… an overview on the protagonists of Italian cuisine and the mainstays of the Ligurian tradition, from grandmother’s taverns to critic-friendly menu.”
– Corriere della Sera
“Perrone has prepared an amazing dish, that you devour with gusto to the grand finale.”
– Tuttolibri
“Authentic and typically Ligurian flavours emerge from a dense plot where family stories weave together with the traditions of a land that is hard to live in and hard to love.”
– Il Secolo XIX
“Marked by the soft grace of a fairy tale and the relentless geometry of good comedies… a delicious story on love and resentment, haute cuisine and human baseness, crossed by a vibrant sensuality, seasoned with the humour typical of Liguria.”
– QLibri
“A pleasant story, as tasty as the many recipes of the books… Perrone has learnt very well the art of fiction.”
– Tempi
