Sweet Honey, Bitter Lemons: Travels in Sicily on a Vespa

Customer Reviews

Perfect indulgence - By: R. W. Wright, 01 May 2008
Many people will have seen Matthew Fort on Great British Menu or read his Guardian columns over the years. His passion for food is totallly infectious. And behind his affable demeanour is a sharp mind, wonderful eye for detail & delightfully involving use of language. On this journey around Sicily he also shows an awful lot of himself. It is a very personal journey. It shows not only a sense of the history of the places he visits, it also tells a lot about his own self; his family relationships, his strength of character, his willingness to engage anyone & everyone in his quest. You sense how hard such a journey is; the loneliness of several weeks on a scooter, the uncertainty of what you will find. This is a rare book as it is readable for so many reasons: as a foodie, as a travel journal, as a social document & most of alll as a good read. You can be interested in any of these or none to enjoy this.
