Description
Good Taste by Caroline Scott is a story of discovery and English nostalgia set in 1932. During the Great Depression, Stella Douglas is tasked with writing a history of food in England, aiming to remind housewives of traditional recipes and men of their country's culinary heritage.
The challenge proves more complex than anticipated, as much of English food has foreign origins. Undeterred, Stella sets out to find quintessential English dishes by exploring the country and speaking with housewives. Her journey takes an unexpected turn when she meets Freddie, a charming stranger who helps her escape her predicament.
This witty and engaging novel explores themes of change, challenge, and self-discovery as Stella navigates her way in the world as a modern woman. With its evocative period details and lovable protagonist, Good Taste is a treat for readers looking for a story that will make them smile.
