A fun, sophisticated illustrated collection of essays that catalogs the simple and not so simple pleasures of the eclectic world of candy from the award-winning author of After the Eclipse. With illustrations by Forsyth Harmon.
A taxonomy of sweetness, a rhapsody of artificial flavors, and a multi-faceted theory of pleasure, Sweet Nothings is made up of one hundred illustrated micro essays organized by candy color, from the red of Pop Rocks to the purple Jelly Bonbon in the Whitman’s Sampler. Each entry is a meditation on taste and texture, a memory unlocked. Everyone’s favorites—and least favorites—are carefully considered, including Snickers and Trader Joe’s Peanut Butter Cups, as well as the beloved Good n’ Plenty and Werther’s Originals.
An expert guide and exquisite writer, Sarah Perry asks such pressing questions as: Twizzlers or Red Vines? Why are Mentos eaters so maniacally happy? And in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, how could Edmund sell out his siblings for, of all things, Turkish delight? She rejects the dreaded “What is your favorite candy?” question and counters: Under what circumstances? F The question itself is flawed—favorite under what circumstances? In what weather? On the road, or at home? In what mood? For candy is inextricably tied to the seasons of our lives. Sweet Nothings moves associatively, touching on pop culture, art, culinary history, philosophy, body image, and class-based food moralism. It challenges the very idea of “junk” food and posits taking pleasure seriously as a means of survival.
Sarah Perry’s pure love of candy weaves together elegiac glimpses of her 90s childhood—and the loss at its center—with stories of love and desire. Surprisingly smart and frequently funny, Sweet Nothings is a tart and sweet ode to finding small joys where you can. Yes, even in black licorice.

Food & Travel Book' Shortlisted for the Guild of Food Writers
First Book and Single Subject Book Awards 2021 Gourmand Cookbook
Award Winner 2020 In 2016 two locals, frustrated at the lack of
opportunities to eat the seafood landed in Ullapool, started a
seafood shack on the harbour of the North West Highlands town.
Serving up whatever their fishermen friends brought them every day,
Kirsty Scobie and Fenella Renwick's crowd funded project was an
instant success and a new book, to be published in November, brings
this to life. In their first book, Kirsty and Fenella tell the
story of Ullapool's Seafood Shack and bring together the recipes
for the fresh, vibrant, ballsy dishes that have made The Seafood
Shack such a Scottish treasure: from their famed Haddock &
Pesto Wrap and the super-luxe Lobster Mac & Cheese to
incredible super-local delicacies like Spiney Popcorn. The Seafood
Shack was born out of a conversation between Kirsty and Fenella out
at sea with their fishermen partners. Ullapool has around twelve
local boats fishing in the clear, icy waters of The Minch: five
prawn trawlers and seven inshore creel boats, with a further two
crabbing boats coming in each week and ten or so white fish boats
landing regularly. The vast majority of this huge variety of
seafood landing daily was then transferred straight onto the back
of a lorry, making it difficult to source it locally. Eager to keep
a little fresh seafood for their hometown, Kirsty and Fenella
opened up The Seafood Shack. The shack swiftly went onto win
recognition, winning the BBC Food & Farming Award for Best
Street food or Takeaway in 2017 and hosting visits from the likes
of Mary Berry and Albert Roux. Kirsty says: "Many tonnes of seafood
are caught in our Scottish seas and then transported straight out
of Ullapool. We wanted to play a part in keeping some of our
seafood local and so the Seafood Shack was born. What we really
love now is being behind the hatches, cooking away and chatting to
our customers as they devour a haddock wrap or peel open some fresh
buttery langoustines. The book tells this story and shares our
approach. What makes the Shack so wonderful to us is its relaxed
feel and we don't have to be stuck in a kitchen behind closed
doors, we can be involved in every aspect. The food we cook is
simple, quick but most importantly fresh and delicious." Punctuated
by the voices of local fishermen, the book celebrates the fishing
industry that has been the beating heart of Ullapool's village life
for 230 years. With both Fenella and Kirsty's partners actively
involved in fishing, The Seafood Shack also reflects the debate
around sustainable fishing. Fenella says: "The people behind our
seafood are a huge part of our story: from Josh's langoustines and
lobsters, Gary's hand-dived scallops and Stephen's white fish to
the team at our local smokehouse or Joe our oyster producer. These
amazing people have been a massive part of our success: at the end
of the day we're not amazing chefs, we're just two girls who love
to cook and having such fantastic and fresh produce is what makes
the Shack work." The Seafood Shack provides over 80 down to earth
recipes and tips for cooking white fish, smoked fish and shellfish.
Kirsty and Fenella's work on the book was recognised when they were
announced as winners of the Jane Grigson Trust Award for New
Writers earlier this year.
