Elizabeth Luard, who has written on food in such seminal volums as The Rich Tradition of European Peasant Cookery, writes beautifully. This story of her full, boisterous family life, with four children, lived across Europe, ends heartbreakingly with the death from AIDS of her oldest daughter. This comes thoroughly recommended. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Not everyone goes to school on a donkey, keeps an eagle owl in the spare bedroom cupboard, or plays chess for the French Foreign Legion. But for the four Luard children, all this was perfectly normal. As normal as taking the scrap bucket across the stream to feed the household pig, or knowing how to hitch up a mulecart. Elisabeth Luard's not-so-simple tale captures the spirit of bringing up four children as they travel across Europe, their lives a series of old-fashioned adventures. Littered with anecdotes and a scattering of their favourite recipes, this book is a celebration of family life. But no family is immune to tragedy - still less one which lives life to the full. In Francesca, the eldest of the three daughters, we a find a true heroine. Passionate, honest, perceptive, she tells her own story - until that moment when she can tell it no more.
