Sylvie Bigar | Cassoulet Confessions: Food, France, Family and the Stew that Saved My Soul
Cassoulet Confessions is an enthralling memoir by award-winning food and travel writer Sylvie Bigar that reveals how a simple journalistic assignment sparked a culinary obsession and transcended into a quest for identity. Set in the stunning southern French countryside, this honest and poignant memoir conveys hunger for authentic food and a universal hunger for home. Sylvie's poetic prose immerses us in her story: we smell the simmering aromas of French kitchens, empathize with her family dilemmas, and experience her internal struggle to understand and ultimately accept herself.
This event is presented in collaboration with the the Jewish Book Council. Sylvie will present her book and answer questions. Books will be available for sale at the JCC.
