The Barbara Pym Cookbook

Rating:
Summary: delightful cookbook
Review: I was thrilled to find a copy of this cookbook as it has recipes from several of Barbara Pym's novels. For instance, Poulet Nicoise is mentioned in Quartet in Autumn as is Oeufs Florentine. What a great idea to publish a cookbook for food mentioned in an author's novels. I can't wait to read her other novels and try the recipes from the cookbook. The recipe for Plum Jam on page 82 is delightful as supposedly Barbara was making plum jam when she received word that articles had been published about her novel Quartet in Autumn. Highly recommend this book for Barbara Pym fans.
