Once a successful surgeon, Frederick Welin now lives in self-imposed exile on an island in the Swedish archipelago. Nearly twelve years have passed since he was disgraced for attempting to cover up a tragic mishap on the operating table. One morning in the depths of winter, he sees a hunched figure struggling towards him across the ice. His past is about to catch up with him. The figure approaching in the freezing cold is Harriet, the only woman he has ever loved, the woman he abandoned in order to go & study in America forty years earlier. She has sought him out in the hope that he will honour a promise made many years ago. Now in the late stages of a terminal illness, she wants to visit a small lake in northern Sweden, a place Welin`s father took him once as a boy. He upholds his pledge & drives her to this beautiful pool hidden deep in the forest. On the journey through the desolate snow-covered landscape, Welin reflects on his impoverished childhood & the woman he later left behind. However, once there Welin discovers that Harriet has left the biggest surprise until last. ...

We`re all familiar with Italy`s classic recipes, but few are aware of the traditional dishes that come from a burgeoning street-food scene. Hidden behind the town squares, away from the touristy restaurants & down laneways are little-known gems offering up some of Italy`s tastiest & best-kept secret dishes that the locals don`t want you to know about. Italians are a social bunch who love to share, therefore it comes as no surprise that food is often prepared & shared on the streets & in the laneways. Italian Street Food is not just another Italian cookbook; it delves into these back streets to bring you some of Italy`s most exciting food. Learn how to make authentic polpettine, arancini, stuffed cuttlefish, cannolis & fritters, & perfect your gelati-making skills with authentic Italian flavours such as lemon & basil, affogato & aperol & orange. With beautiful stories & photography throughout, Italian Street Food brings an old & much-loved cuisine into a whole new light. ...
