What I Ate in One Year (and Related Thoughts) by Stanley Tucci

5.0

“The hardest thing about aging is how quickly it happens and how slowly it occurs.” - Stanley Tucci, Taste

Stanley Tucci has written another amazing memoir. One would think reading what is essentially someone’s food diary would be a bore but quite contradictory, What I Ate in One Year is fascinating. The entries Mr. Tucci writes takes us through a year of his life using food as the vehicle. Some of the entries are just about what he ate and how he liked (or disliked) it but others are more in depth covering topics such as the death of his first wife, his cancer, and other aspects of his life.
This is such a unique way to write a memoir and much like his first memoir, Taste, this will leave you craving both good food and more of Mr. Tucci’s anecdotes.
