'Wonderful, precise, extraordinary' Guardian
'An ingenious and touching treat' TLS
Winner of the British Book Awards Biography of the Year
Nigel Slater's bestselling memoir of a childhood remembered through food, featuring a new introduction from Elizabeth Day, photographs and an additional final chapter.
Whether relating his mother's ritual burning of the toast, his father's dreaded Boxing Day stew or such culinary highlights of the day as Arctic Roll and Grilled Grapefruit (then considered something of a status symbol in Wolverhampton), this incredibly moving and deliciously evocative memoir of childhood, adolescence and sexual awakening vividly recreates daily life in sixties and seventies suburban England.
'You read this remarkable memoir partly cringing, partly marvelling at Slater's hallucinogenic retrieval of times past. He is the Proust of the Nesquik era' Independent
'Acutely observed, poignant and beautifully written . . . Slater tells his heartbreaking story with great subtlety' Daily Telegraph
