Summary

"In the vein of the classic 84, Charing Cross Road and Meet Me at the Museum, this witty and tender novel follows two women in 1960s America as they discover that food really does connect us all, and that friendship and laughter are the best medicine"--, Provided by publisherJoan Bergstrom lives in Los Angeles and is just starting out as a writer for the newspaper food pages. Imogen Fortier lives on Camano Island outside Seattle, writing a monthly column for a Pacific Northwest magazine-- and she's never tasted fresh garlic, exotic fare in the Northwest of the sixties. When Joan sends a fan letter-- and a gift of saffron-- the two women's letters build a closeness that sustains them through the Cuban Missile Crisis, the assassination of President Kennedy, and the unexpected in their own lives. Imogen's decades-long marriage blossoms into something new and exciting, and in turn, Joan learns that true love does not always come in the form we expect it to. -- adapted from Goodreads info
