Reviews

AuthorAnnaBella

After Saro’s death, Tembi finds comfort by traveling with Zoela back to Sicily during the summer months. From Scratch is such a special memoir. Food played a significant role from beginning to end and would prove to be a contributing salve to healing and family cohesiveness. In particular, Locke’s descriptions of Saro’s final days left me breathless.

CMitch

Saro’s traditional Sicilian family wasn’t happy with him marrying a black American woman, and during the beginning of their marriage he was estranged from them. She creates a special bond with her mother-in-law, Nonna, as they walk through the grieving process.

Bukola Akinyemi

Do they belong in Sicily or this family when Saro is no longer around to bridge the gap? Strategically embedded within her story, are issues of classism and racism. It’s with the power of love and forgiveness, that Tembi and Zoela will build a home away from home.

Maya J

Saro and his family taught her about food. Chef Saro making love to Tembi with the dishes he prepared for her and moving to the other end of the earth just to be with her.
