Hardback. Condizione: New. Winner of the André Simon Food Book Award Shortlisted for the Fortnum and Mason Food Book Award 'Extraordinary' TELEGRAPH ????? 'Delightful' GUARDIAN 'Bee Wilson is one of my favourite writers and this may be her best book' CHRIS VAN TULLEKEN This strikingly original account from award-winning food writer Bee Wilson charts how everyday objects take on deeply personal meanings in all our lives. One ordinary day, the tin in which Bee Wilson baked her wedding cake fell to the ground at her feet. This should have been unremarkable, except that her marriage had just ended. Unsettled by her own feelings about the heart-shaped tin, Wilson begins a search for others who have attached strong and even magical meanings to kitchen objects. She meets people who deal with grief or pain by projecting emotions onto certain objects, whether it is a beloved parent's salt shaker, a cracked pasta bowl or an inherited china dinner service. Remembering her own mother, a dementia sufferer, she explores the ways that both of them have been haunted by deciding which kitchen utensils to hold on to and which to get rid of when you think you are losing your mind. Looking to different continents, cultures and civilisations to investigate the full scope of this phenomenon, Wilson blends her own experiences with a series of touching personal stories that reflect the irrational and fundamentally human urge to keep mementos. Why would a man trapped in a concentration camp decide to make a spoon for himself? Why do some people hoard? What do gifts mean? How do we decide what is junk and what is treasure? We see firsthand how objects can contain hidden symbols, keep the past alive and even become powerful symbols of identity and resistance; from a child's first plate to a refugee's rescued vegetable corers. Thoughtful, tender and beautifully written, The Heart-Shaped Tin is a moving examination of love, loss, broken cups and the legacy of things we all leave behind. 'With candour and intelligence, Wilson highlights how the props of domestic life become markers of the progress of our lives, but more movingly she probes that it's possible to recover from heartache with gusto' The Times and Sunday Times Books of the Year 2025 'Fascinating and also tender' Diana Henry 'This beautifully written book about the deep significance of certain objects in our kitchen - is nothing less than an intense, compassionate expression of the human condition . Both intimate and expansive, The Heart-Shaped Tin is a book I know I'll give, urgently and importantly, to those I love' Nigella Lawson 'Very few food writers can do what Bee does. It made me think again - and with more tenderness - about the kitchen objects that I ordinarily take for granted. These are the human stories embedded in ou.…
