This is THE book of the year. You must have a copy – or two – give to friends or family that way you give twice! What could be more satisfying? 

What a great idea and initiative. Congrats to everyone who has taken part – look forward to reading the stories!

In Ireland there was an old tradition of ‘Seanachai’ (Gaelic term pronounced shanakee meaning storyteller).  They would wander from place to place telling stories, reciting poetry and singing songs in return for bed and lodgings for the night.  A magical experience for those living in simpler times.  When I travel, I never tire of listening to other people’s experiences and soaking up stories full of human charm.  That magic is reproduced here with ‘Foreign Flavours’ by Writers Abroad.  I’m convinced they must all have a little of the Seanachai in them.

Something different, looks interesting

Got my copy yesterday and can’t stop dipping into it every since. Some very well-written short stories, great articles and I’ve already bookmarked some recipes. I’m going to order some more for Christmas presents.

A heartwarming book for those long winter evenings! Tickle your taste buds by trying some of the recipes and nourish your soul by reading some great stories. I ordered my copies yesterday.

Stroll from a butcher’s shop in Spain to a tea-stall in Bangladesh; taste nsima, the staple Malawian dish, or futuristic olive substitutes from another planet; meet Mrs Garcia who sells the tastiest tomatoes in the south of France; discover bhelpuri from India and vincisgrassi from Italy…this beautifully illustrated collection of fiction, non-fiction and recipes is a true feast which has something for everyone.

An engaging and entertaining collection of stories and articles–250 pages–written by expats from all around the world. All about food–and all for charity.
