Aunt Margaret's Pudding by Alison Brackenbury
Alison Brackenbury is obsessed by time. Now in her sixties, she still feels close to her skilled country grandparents, who lived in redbrick farm cottages, walked to work and, when necessary, fed their neighbours’ children. She remembers them with admiration—but not nostalgia. The poet’s grandmother, Dorothy Eliza (Dot) is the subject of this HappenStance book, which mingles poems with a selection of Dot’s recipes (both her original handwritten copy and Alison’s user-friendly version), and concludes with a delicious prose account of Dot’s life. All recipes have been hand-tested—and tasted! You don’t have to be a seasoned poet-taster to enjoy this lovely book.
