I expected this memoir to be funny and appealing to someone of a similar age, if from a very different background. I was surprised by the insights into the changing way we eat food. And I didn't realise that the end section was exactly what I needed to read facing similar issues in my life. It doesn't pretend to be a deeply serious book but the serious aspects are well done.
