But here it is - the story of the Orange Bakery. How I went from bed to bread and how my Dad went from being a teacher to a baker. You reading it means everything to me' Kitty Tait Breadsong tells the story of Kitty Tait who was a chatty, bouncy and full-of-life 14 year old until she was overwhelmed by an ever-thickening cloud of depression and anxiety and she withdrew from the world. Her desperate family tried everything to help her but she slipped further away from them. One day her dad Alex, a teacher, baked a loaf of bread with her and that small moment changed everything. One loaf quickly escalated into an obsession and Kitty started to find her way out of the terrible place she was in. Baking bread was the one thing that made any sense to her and before long she was making loaves for half her village. After a few whirlwind months, she and her dad opened the Orange Bakery, where queues now regularly snake down the street. Breadsong is also a cookbook full of Kitty's favourite recipes, including: - the Comfort loaf made with Marmite, and with a crust that tastes like Twiglets - bitesize queue nibbles, doughnuts with an ever-changing filling to keep the bakery queue happy - sticky fika buns with mix-and-match fillings such as cardamom and orange - Happy Bread covered with salted caramel - cheese straws made with easy homemade ruff puff pastry - the ultimate brown butter and choc chip cookies with the perfect combination of gooey centre and crispy edges.Trade ReviewJust when I thought I didn’t have anything left to learn about bread, Kitty teaches me otherwise.

When Joan sends a fan letter to Imogen, alongside a gift of saffron and a recipe, their journey of culinary exploration and life-changing friendship begins. A long-lost flavour unearths buried memories, a quest to make carne asada opens the doors of a sheltered life, and, as the two women connect through their letters, they build a closeness that sustains them through the unexpected changes in their own worlds. 'Like a dinner with friends you won't want to end' J. Ryan Stradal 'Warm, delicious, and absolutely satisfying' Meg Waite Clayton 'You'll want to share it with everyone you call friend' Louise MillerTrade ReviewI absolutely loved this . . . I wanted to go on reading it forever * Nigella Lawson *Part historical fiction, part friendship saga, and part carnival for the senses, Love & Saffron isn't just for food lovers -- it's an ode to risk-takers, trailblazers, and the chefs in all of us. With lush descriptions of food and a resonant historical setting, Love & Saffron is a sweet, savory, and emotional pleasure. It's like a dinner with friends you won't want to end. * J. Ryan Stradal, author of Kitchens of the Great Midwest *In an age when we're barraged with Twitter blow-ups, pandemic deaths, and political discourse of the most uncivil kind, Love & Saffron is as refreshing as watching the sunset over the Pacific Ocean, with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc and a bowl of garlicky clams at your elbow. Kim Fay convincingly recreates a charming and civil world, and a touching friendship, in a period piece that will restore you to your kinder, gentler self. * Richard C. Morais, author of The Hundred Foot Journey *Love & Saffron is simply a delight. In letters between two women-strangers, at first, but ultimately best friends -- in 1963, Kim Fay reveals how a love of food can open doors into culture, history, homes, and love. Indulge yourself in the world of Joan and Immy, preferably with some quesadillas or mussels in wine and saffron by your side. * Ann Hood, author of The Knitting Circle *Fay's brilliant novel explores the magic of food and how one letter with a special ingredient can forge the unlikeliest of friendships -- awakening the taste buds of life, meaningful friendships, and love along the way. Á table! Savor this story one delicious and heartwarming page at a time. * Samantha Vérant, author of The Secret French Recipes of Sophie Valroux and Sophie Valroux’s Paris Stars *Love & Saffron is a gift, a poignant and moving gift, to food and to friendship. This book transports us back to the lives and kitchens of two women from different generations and different places in the Sixties. Through the exchange of letters, confidences, recipes and, yes, saffron, a deep relationship evolves for both the characters and readers. Imagine taking a stroll through a critical time in American cuisine through the eyes and palates of two great friends. I loved this lovely book. Pour yourself a glass of Chablis and drink in Love & Saffron. * Lian Dolan, author of The Sweeney Sisters and Helen of Pasadena *In Kim Fay's charming novel two women in 1960s Los Angeles and Washington state become the best of friends long before they meet in person. Together, they navigate relationships, ambition, societal expectations, and the arts of making and writing about food. Warm, delicious, and absolutely satisfying -- I devoured in one enthusiastic gulp! * Meg Waite Clayton, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Train to London and The Postmistress of Paris *The beautifully written Love & Saffron is a delightful recipe of food, friendship, love, and acceptance. Utterly captivating from the first page to the last, Kim Fay has penned a touching, satisfying novel that readers will surely savor for a long time to come. This story will fill your heart, lift your spirit, and feed your soul. I truly didn't want it to end. * Heather Webber, USA Today bestselling author of Midnight at the Blackbird Café *Love & Saffron is a story about the joys of being alive -- the delight found in discovery, the comfort of a good meal, and most of all, the richness of true friendship. It is a story about connection-to place, to food, and to each other. I read Love and Saffron in one delicious afternoon. It's the kind of story you get lost in, one that breaks you open, fills your heart, and reminds you of what is important in life. A genuine pleasure. You'll want to share it with everyone you call friend. * Louise Miller, author of The City Baker’s Guide to Country Living *A deliciously memorable and lovely story of friendship, food and the enduring connections we form through the lost art of letter writing. * Tembi Locke, author of From Scratch: A Memoir of Love, Sicily, and Finding Home *In the footsteps of Laurie Colwin and Ruth Reichl, Love & Saffron is a beautiful, gentle, intimate exploration of food and friendship, as well as life, loss, and love. * Susan Elia MacNeal, author of Mr. Churchill’s Secretary, a Maggie Hope novel *Astonishing, exhilarating, existential! Love & Saffron explodes forever the arbitrary separation of fiction from fact. I inhaled this book in one delectably deep breath, uncovering layer after layer of the aromas, flavors, tastes on lips and tongue of my own life as a young American housewife in the 1960s. Author Fay conveys the texture of daily life as a mystery story that discovers food is a cultural creation and connector as powerful as story-telling itself to erase the separation of past from present and memory from now. This is a book for Every Man and Woman. READ IT NOW! * Betty Fussell, author of The Story of Corn, My Kitchen Wars, and Eat, Live, Love, Die *Love & Saffron is an elixir for our times. It speaks to the power of food to communicate friendship and stoke a curiosity about worlds unlike our own. After you read this book, you'll want to drop a letter in the mail to someone you love. * Naomi Hirahara, author of Clark and Division *A delectable second novel showing how food can bring people together, even across distances and cultures... Fay's emotionally generous novel demonstrates how people's worlds can expand when they open themselves to new possibilities. Readers will be touched by this enriching tale and inspired to embark on their own international culinary adventures. * Booklist *Through their culinary adventures, new worlds open up for Joan and Imogen and bring with them new people. This charming, effervescent little novel (it's a slim 200 pages) deserves to be a huge bestseller. * Red Magazine *
