THE INSTANT #1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER From award-winning writer
Nigel Slater, comes a new and exquisitely written collection of
notes, memoir, stories and small moments of joy. 'Nigel Slater’s
prose is the rarest delicacy of all: exquisite yet effortless,
filled with heart, tenderness, yearning and humour' ELIZABETH DAY
For years, Nigel Slater has kept notebooks of curiosities and
wonderings, penned while at his kitchen table, soaked in a
fisherman’s hut in Reykjavik, sitting calmly in a moss garden in
Japan or sheltering from a blizzard in a Vienna Konditorei. These
are the small moments, events and happenings that gave pleasure
before they disappeared.Miso soup for breakfast, packing a suitcase
for a trip and watching a butterfly settle on a carpet, hiding in
plain sight. He gives short stories of feasts such as a mango eaten
in monsoon rain or a dish of restorative macaroni cheese and homes
in on the scent of freshly picked sweet peas and the sound of water
breathing at night in Japan. This funny and sharply observed
collection of the good bits of life, often things that pass many of
us by, is utter joy from beginning to end.‘I loved this. It is a
secular book of hours – thoughts and pleasures beautifully cadenced
and generously placed’ Edmund de Waal ‘?Nigel Slater has a magical
capacity to find beauty in the smallest moments. A nourishing,
sustaining book’ Olivia Laing ‘His evocative, uplifting
observations are a balm for life: a prose-poem for eaters and a
spiritual companion for thoughtful cooks.A true and enduring joy’
Nigella Lawson ‘You can’t always feel buoyant and grateful but
noticing – and getting pleasure from – the seemingly insignificant
is a good way to live. As he says, feel the “small moments of joy”’
