Expectation meets Julie and Julia, The Yellow Kitchen is a
brilliant exploration of food, belonging and friendship. London
E17, 2019. A yellow kitchen stands as a metaphor for the lifelong
friendship between three women: Claude, the baker, goal-orientated
Sophie and political Giulia. They have the best kind of friendship,
chasing life and careers; dating, dreaming and consuming but always
returning to be reunited in the yellow kitchen. That is, until a
trip to Lisbon unravels unexplored desires between Claude and
Sophie. Having sex is one thing, waking up the day after is the
beginning of something new. Exploring the complexities of female
friendship, The Yellow Kitchen is a hymn to the last year of London
as we knew it and a celebration of the culture, the food and the
rhythms we live by. Praise for The Yellow Kitchen: 'Rich and
thoroughly intoxicating, The Yellow Kitchen is a sensual journey
into friendship, food and female sexuality, full of complex,
fascinating characters and bold ideas. I loved it' Rosie Walsh 'A
heady mix of politics, friendship, sex and food, poignant,
provocative and utterly distinctive' Paula Hawkins 'An exquisite
novel - beautifully rendered, powerfully told, and so deeply felt.
I urge you to read this novel - you will never forget it' Lucia
Osborne-Crowley 'Mixing female friendship, romance, loss,
redemption, and memorable meals, The Yellow Kitchen is the perfect
recipe for a flavorful literary feast. With subtle dashes of wit
and generous sprinklings of honesty, Margaux Vialleron has crafted
a brave and tender tale' Kim Fay, author of Love & Saffron 'The
Yellow Kitchen is so warm and convivial in atmosphere, and its
discussion of the politics of the UK and their impact very
poignant. It portrayed beautifully the sense of adventure of being
a certain age, with its rush and richness and emotional confusion,
and I found it such a satisfying read' Emily Itami, author of Fault
Lines
