About this product

Product Information

Three generations of a South African family come to life in this warm memoir of cozy kitchens, memorable places, quirky characters and soul food. Zuretha Roos draws on the memories of the abundant farm kitchens of her Hex River Valley childhood, happy Stellenbosch student days and the, sometimes challenging, world of marriage and young motherhood in seventies' Johannesburg to become an accomplished cook and magazine food editor. In amongst the pots and pans, busy city life is pleasantly interrupted by holidays in Hermanus, idyllic sojourns at Keurboomstrand and weekends on an isolated farm in the Waterberg. All is blissful, if not a little chaotic, until immense tragedy strikes and her once happy family has to come to terms with a brutal twist of fate... Woven together with trusted family recipes, these tales bring to mind a time when history was shaped over strong cups of coffee and food came from the earth, the ocean and a mother's heart.

Reviews
Zuretha Roos' THE SAFFRON PEAR TREE AND OTHER KITCHEN MEMORIES provides a warm South African memoir which could've been featured in our 'Biography and Autobiography' or 'Cookbook' sections, but is included here for its fine blend of family memoirs, recipes, and South African culture. While few outside of her country may know her name, she's written several best-selling works of Afrikaans fiction and has forged a name in literary circles in South Africa, so THE SAFFRON PEAR TREE is certain to reach both old fans and new audiences with a satisfying, unusual blend of recipes, cultural insights, and more.

Dvd arrived quickly and well packaged and taken care of. The item was listed as acceptable and met all of my needs but here's a quick description of what I got: Some wear is visible on the plastic sleeve on the outside of the case. The inside leaflet was still there! The disk has about 3 very notable scratches, although none are bigger than about 2 centimeters. Little to no grime anywhere on the product. Great service!
