Fear Guards the Lemon Grove by Klaus Pichler

From the very first pages, this book draws you in, and I found it almost impossible to put down. As a lover of the simple yet sophisticated Italian dish „pasta al limone,“ I found myself suddenly drawn into the complex history of Sicily and its cultural interconnections via my culinary weakness. The photographs, illustrations and narrative passages had the same effect on my senses as the finely grated lemon zest on the dish itself: unmistakably distinctive. This distinctive ambivalence, which is as multi-layered as Sicily itself, reflects the complex and culturally woven history of the land.
