For Iris childhood memories are of long hot summers spent playing with her cousin Rosmarie in her grandmother's garden a place where redcurrants turned to pale tears on the branches of trees & beautiful Aunt Inga shook sparks from the tips of her fingers. But now her grandmother is dead & along with inheriting the property Iris finds that she also inherits her family's darkest secrets. Reluctant to keep it but reluctant to sell Iris spends one more summer at the house. By day she swims at the local lake where she rediscovers a childhood companion. Alone at night she roams through the familiar rooms exploring the tall black shadows of the past. In the flicker between remembrance & forgetting Iris recalls an enigmatic grandfather who went to war & came back a different man the night her cousin Rosmarie fell through the conservatory roof & shattered her family's lives & a moment of love that made all the trees in the orchard bloom over night. ...

Now established as a modern classic this comic & poignant play by a then nineteen-year-old working-class Lancashire girl was praised at its London premiere by Graham Greene as having 'all the freshness of Mr Osborne's Look Back in Anger & a greater maturity.' It was made into a highly acclaimed film in 1962. The play is about the adolescent Jo & her relationship with her irresponsible mum Helen the Nigerian sailor who leaves Jo pregnant & Geoffrey the homosexual art student who moves in to help Jo with the baby.

In this authoritative & fascinating book Edite Vieira traces the rich legacy of her country's culinary excellence from medieval through to modern times lacing it with history & anecdote & a collection of authentically delicious recipes.
