5/21/2023 0 Comments Relish knisley![]() ![]() Relish also surpasses French Milk in content and tone…Lucy is older now she’s far more positive, knowledgable and has developed a better sense of humour. A feast for the eyes while you read about a feast for the soul. First of all, it’s in colour, so it’s already winning. I loved Lucy’s style of drawing from the very first time I opened French Milk and enjoyed the book immensely…but Relish is far more pleasant. It makes you search your mind to uncover your own food related memories those you experienced in your childhood and adulthood (so far!) and I found it charming and inspiring from cover to cover. Relish is the kind of book that puts you in a great mood instantly. While it’s clear from reading French Milk that Knisley has a deep appreciation for food, you don’t really understand just how much until you move on to Relish and uncover far more about the talented New York illustrator. Reading page after page about Lucy’s lifelong relationship with food (her Mother is a chef, her Father a gourmet) her passion for all things gastronomic practically leaps off the pages. ![]() Having read French Milk in one afternoon curled up by the fire, I devoured Relish in more or less the same amount of time. In my opinion, there’s really no better thing to celebrate. Lucy Knisley’s second book, Relish (my life in the kitchen) is a brightly coloured and wonderfully illustrated celebration of food. ![]()
