5.0
An absolutely luxurious read. The writing was something you rest in, something to roll around in your mouth and your mind. It’s climate fiction, which can be heavy, but it’s also a book that inspires desire and hope and deep love for the complexity of life. The food descriptions were great, and the descriptions of why food matters were even better. Even reading the acknowledgments was a treat! I will be thinking about this book for a long time and would highly recommend.
