THIS EVENT HAS SOLD OUT.

Books and a love of food have always gone together, and these two women weave entrancing stories out of gastronomical pleasure. Renowned American food author Ruth Reichl turns her pen to fiction for the first time with Delicious!, a novel in which a magazine food writer makes a life-changing discovery in the publication’s archives.

In her latest novel, The Food of Love Cookery School, New Zealand’s Nicky Pellegrino transports her readers to a Sicilian mountain town. Listen to these two wonderful writers read from their work and talk about their books and food as you sip tea and nibble on delicious treats. Introduced by The Press’s food editor, Kate Fraser.
