THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER – DISCOVER THE MOUTHWATERING FOLLOW-UP TO HIS BESTSELLING MEMOIR, TASTE

‘Sharing food is one of the purest human acts’

Food has always been an integral part of Stanley Tucci’s life: from stracciatella soup served in the shadow of the Pantheon, to marinara sauce cooked between rehearsals and costume fittings, to home-made pizza eaten with his children before bedtime.

In What I Ate in One Year, Tucci records twelve months of eating, in restaurants, kitchens, film sets, press junkets, at home and abroad, with friends, with family, with strangers, and occasionally just by himself.

Publisher Review

A book to spark joy – and one to make you hungry * inews, The Best New Books to Read in October * Hard to resist … While his diary is an enlightening insight into what it’s like to be one of the most well-connected men in the world , it’s more about how food can make your day … A transporting ode to the joy of eating, cooking and sharing with the people you love * Stylist * A hugely entertaining glimpse into a well-lived life full of fun, food, family, travel, work, passions and love. I adored every page of this voyeuristic treat of a book. * Dolly Alderton * Everyone wants to spend a day and share a meal with Stanley Tucci and this is the perfect way to do it! Seeing the world through the eyes of beloved actor and culinary adventurer is a true joy. Every food lover will devour this book! * Ina Garten * What I Ate In One Year is an absolute delight. Tucci’s wit is dry as a martini; his observations as sharp as lemon tart, but really what I most adore about his writing is his ability to reach across the table and guide the reader not just through mealtimes, but through life itself. This book is beautiful and very moving and, as with all the best repasts, once I’d finished I immediately wanted to experience the whole thing again. * Elizabeth Day * The actor reflects on his year through the lens of everything he ate. It’s witty, joyful and hunger-inducing – a perfect gift for foodies if there ever was one * iPaper – The 30 best books for Christmas 2024 *
