Yesteryear

Our 'book guest' for this one is Caro Claire Burke's hugely successful novel Yesteryear. Have you read it? What did you think? We had a lot of thoughts, and here they all are in this ep...

Hello and welcome back to Something to Eat and Something to Read, a podcast for people who love food and cooking and reading, hosted by Germaine Leece, a bibliotherapist and psychotherapist based in Sydney and Sophie Hansen, a food writer and farmer from Orange in central-west New South Wales

This episode’s book ‘guest’ is the hugely successful Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke. And the conversation we have around it is a juicy one, spanning everything from returnism, the ‘performance’ of eating, cooking and parenting, friction-maxing, trad wife culture, cooking as care vs cooking as control and how this book ‘misses the most important point of all’.

What did you think of this page-turner?

Show notes are coming to our subscribers shortly.
