Around The Table

'A table is where we eat and talk, where we connect...What and how we eat remains a source of constant fascination to me, as is how particular ingredients spread across the world. I want to make links and trace patterns. Food is about history, geography, our habits, imagination and how we relate to each other.' Diana Henry.

Around the Table is a selection of some of Diana's very best essays, handpicked from more than two decades of her beloved cookbooks. Moving, funny and incisive, together these pieces form a memoir through food.

Some of the ticket options that don’t include the author’s book, or are specially priced for couples, are limited in number and can sell out quickly. Our aim is to try and bring the best and most interesting authors to our town.
