For anyone who has ever found their loved ones’ emotional worlds unreachable, Chinese Parents Don’t Say I Love You by Candice Chung is a bittersweet memoir of love, heritage and the unspoken language of food. Chung's memoir is packed with heart, humour and those bright- hearted moments around a dinner table that bring us together.

In eager anticipation of our Edinburgh launch with Candice Chung on Wednesday 16 April, we've rounded up some of our favourite food reads.

This is a list of all genres and types, fiction and non-fiction, that celebrates and ruminates on the feelings brought about over shared food and relationships made in the kitchen. From Michelle Zauner's heartfelt memoir in which she tries to connect with her mother over the Korean food of her youth, to Rebecca May Johnsons's passionate political dissection of the power in food, cooking and recipes. We hope you enjoy this feast of food and feelings.

Tickets for our event with Candice Chung are HERE!
