The Fortnight in September

in response to Clara

Looking for book recs. Specifically, I really love books that create vivid scenes of home life - memoirs of cooks and eating, light reads that have really detailed descriptions of interpersonal dynamics and evocative scene-setting. Can be set anywhere in the world, but I like the focus to be domestic and familial. Ones I’ve loved recently are David Nichols’ “You Are Here” and Annie Proulx’s “The Shipping News.” Anything you’d recommend? Also open to TV and film recs (think along the lines of “Catastrophe” and “Perfect Days”).
