The Lockdown Tales
SKU: 9780228840527
Seven women and three men leave the city to avoid a pandemic. They isolate together in a local farm, where they pass the time working, flirting, eating, drinking, making music and above all telling stories. It happened in Florence in 1351, during the Plague, and gave us Boccaccio's Decameron.
Seven hundred years later, in Australia, it happens again. The stories are very different, but they're still bawdy, satirical, funny and sometimes sad, and they celebrate human cleverness, love, courage and imagination.
This cook book has to be the most special addition to any kitchen or home baker or not!..
I am very pleased Herbert’s book has been bought with mine. While I don’t mention him once, he’s one of my favourite poets!
A must to have and also gift to someone special!!..the recipes are authentically wonderful! Also to note very quick delivery turnaround time.
