America foreign correspondents Paula Butturini and Jhon Tagliabue met and fell in love at Rome.But just 29 days after their 1989 wedding,Tagliabue a New York Times Resporter,was wounded by sniper fire while on assignment in Romania.In this moving account of the couple's battle with his subsequent ,Butturini describes how she turned to the familiar comfort of preparing meals to maintain control as her husband spiraled in to darkness.While he seek a cure,she discovers that the daily act of placing simple Italian dishes -pastina in chicken broth,or tomatoes stuffed with herbs and rice-on the table is "an emblem for us, of good times...of healing in that stretch of trouble ,of promise that e would once again have a future to enjoy,if only we could hang on till the fever of depression passed."Feast is a reminder that food sustains not only bodies but souls as well.
