At Grandmother's Table: Women Write about Food, Life and the Enduring Bond between Grandmothers and Granddaughters

Author: Ellen Perry Berkeley

A wonderful book about grandmothers and the memories evoked by family meals. Nearly 70 women share their grandmothers' touching life stories and favorite recipes. Their essays show us why our grandmother's "comfort food" is indeed so comforting: it connects not only with her spirit, but also with the lives of our mothers, sisters, cousins, and daughters. An endearing look at family culinary history and the fascinating stories of women whose collective lives span three centuries.

About the Author:
Editor Ellen Perry Berkeley is an award-winning writer whose work has appeared in The New York Times.

Publishers Weekly

The particular stories each granddaughter shares go way beyond any stereotypes. In fact, though the recipes reflect each grandmother's warmth and personality, they take a back seat to the reminiscences themselves.

Midwest Book Review

Highly recommended reading for those who appreciate nostalgia, family traditions, and generational legacies in the kitchen.

Women's Times

A beautiful book—one I will give to my mother, one I wish my own grandmother could have read.

LA Parent

Sweet recollections from each contributor make this book a special treasure that reminds us of how much grandmothers give us, as children and forever.

Internet Book Watch

At Grandmother's Table offers a fascinating collection of writings about food, life, and the enduring bond between grandmothers and their granddaughters. Enhanced with the occasional recipes such as Grandma Riello's Spaghetti Sauce, Mildred's Wild Blackberry Tarts, and Grandma Rendler's Apple Strudel, At Grandmother's Table offers the intimate and candid thoughts of eight women, richly illustrated with vintage photographs and original drawings. At Grandmother's Table would grace any home or community library collection and is very highly recommended reading for those who appreciate nostalgia, family traditions, and generational legacies of the kitchen.
