FROM STANLEY TUCCI, AWARD-WINNING ACTOR AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR, A DELICIOUSLY UNIQUE MEMOIR CHRONICLING A YEAR'S WORTH OF MEALS "Sharing food is one of the purest human acts." Food has always been an integral part of Stanley Tucci's life: from stracciatella soup served in the shadow of the Pantheon, to marinara sauce cooked between rehearsals and costume fittings, to homemade pizza eaten with his children before bedtime. Now, in What I Ate in One Year, Tucci records twelve months of eating-in restaurants and kitchens, on film sets and press junkets, at home and abroad, with friends, with family, with strangers, and occasionally just by himself. Ranging from the mouthwateringly memo grable, to the comfortingly demestic, to the infuriatingly inedible, the meats memorial. ized in this diary are a prism for him to reflect on the ways his life and his family are cons stantly evolving. Through food, he marks- and mourns the passing of time and the loss of loved ones, and prepares himself for what is to come.
