Shortlisted, 2018 Writers' Federation of New Brunswick Book Award for Non-Fiction. Jan Wong knows food is better when shared, so when she set out to write a book about home cooking in France, Italy, and China, she asked her 22-year-old son, Sam, to join her. On their journey, Jan and Sam live and cook with locals, seeing first-hand how globalization is changing food, families, and cultures. Along the way, mother and son explore their sometimes-fraught relationship, uniting — and occasionally clashing — over their mutual love of cooking. A memoir about family, an exploration of the globalization of food cultures, and a meditation on the complicated relationships between mothers and sons, Apron Strings is complex, unpredictable, and unexpectedly hilarious. Biography & autobiography, cooking and food, travel, Canadian author. Jan Wong is the author of five non-fiction bestsellers. She has won numerous journalism awards and is now a professor of journalism at St. Thomas University.
