Mention food in the heading, I'm interested, mention it again in the next few paragraphs and I am hooked. Wolfie's life is enriched by food nd lovingly creates each meal with thought and enthusiasm as well as running a successful deli where he is well loved by his patrons. He loved nothing more than preparing food for Mona when they first met when she ate it with gusto, however Mona is heading in a downward spiral into dementia and the food no longer interests her.
When leaving her home for a walk, it is obvious that her illness has taken over her life and she no longer recognises the people closest to her.
This is a well written and captivating start to a book and I am keen to continue.
