Summary

Following the successful publication of 'Dear Francesca' and 'Dear Olivia', Mary Contini picks up the thread of her family story from 1934 in Pozzuoli, Naples, following the commercial success of the family business - Edinburgh's acclaimed Valvona & Crolla - and the 'dolce vita' of her parent's generation. With her inimitable style she shares stories of exuberant family relationships, mouthwatering food and hilarious laughter, painting a vivid picture of life in wartime Italy and Scotland and the decades immediately after.
