My Story
Sylvie BIGAR
When Sylvie accepted an apparently anodyne assignment on cassoulet, France's ancestral bean and meat stew, she could not have known that she was about to jump into a rabbit hole that would lead her miles away from her upper-crust childhood in Switzerland and force her to reckon with her identity and her own dramatic family history.
Cassoulet Confessions
, a poignant gourmand memoir, vacillates between generational family drama and Sylvie's gastronomic training as the reader is engulfed in the simmering smells of the French kitchen, then suddenly thrown in the terrifying front seat of the family car. Release Date: May 4, 2022. Available for pre-order.
