Summary
Summary
Polly Waterford is recovering from a toxic relationship. Unable to afford their flat, she has to move miles away from everyone, to a sleepy little seaside resort in Cornwall, where she lives alone above an abandoned shop.And so Polly takes out her frustrations on her favorite hobby: making bread. But what was previously a weekend diversion suddenly becomes far more important as she pours her emotions into kneading and pounding the dough, and each loaf becomes better and better. With nuts and seeds, olives and chorizo, with local honey (courtesy of local bee keeper, Huckle), and with reserves of determination and creativity Polly never knew she had, she bakes and bakes and bakes . . . and people start to hear about it.
Sometimes, bread really is life . . . and Polly is about to reclaim hers.
Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“On the surface, Colgan’s latest appears to be a cute book about baking, but there is much more depth and emotion here than initially meets the eye. At times lighthearted and funny, and at times contemplative and deep, this novel is a real gem. The descriptions of bread and bread making, coupled with recipes, make the book an immersive experience. Add to this charming, small-town life, love, and friendship, and readers will truly delight in the time spent reading this splendid tale.” —RT Book Reviews (4½ stars, Top Pick!)
This confection of a novel. . . . will please her fans and can be recommended to readers who enjoy novels by Jill Mansell and Jojo Moyes. —Booklist
