James Beard Award-winning author Laura Schenone undertakes a quest
to retrieve her great grandmother's ravioli recipe, reuniting with
relatives as she goes. In lyrical prose and delicious recipes,
Schenone takes the reader on an unforgettable journey from the grit
of New Jersey's industrial wastelands and the fast-paced disposable
culture of its suburbs to the dramatically beautiful coast of
Liguria the family's homeland with its pesto, smoked chestnuts,
torte, and, most beloved of all, ravioli, the food of celebration
and happiness. Schenone discovers the persistent importance of
place, while offering a perceptive voice on immigration and
ethnicity in its twilight. Along the way, she gives us the comedies
and foibles of family life, a story of love and loss, a deeper
understanding of the bonds between parents and children, and the
mysteries of pasta, rolled into a perfect circle of gossamer
dough."
