There was a lovely review in the paper last week of this book 'Dinner with Edward' by Isabel Vincent. I would like to read it.
' In her new book, Dinner with Edward, Vincent tells the story of their five-year friendship. As he grieved the loss of his wife of 69 years, Vincent’s own marriage was dissolving. They bonded over Edward’s perfect martinis and the fabulous meals — stuffed baby squid Lisbon-style, chicken paillard with sauce aux champignons — that he painstakingly prepared.'
So I put a hold on this book at my library and saw that there are currently 11 holds. Given that you are given 3 weeks to read a book, my turn will be in 33 weeks or less! I'm not in a hurry and decided not to purchase the $30 hardcover edition for now.
