About This Book

Love, loss, and the redemptive power of bread are the irresistible ingredients in this warm, witty novel by the author of Blessed Are the Cheesemakers.

Artisanal baker Esme Stack has left London, along with her husband and young son, for the country life of Suffolk. Between her prickly father-in-law and some dysfunctional livestock, she nurses a private grief—and finds a healing refuge in baking sumptuous bread. 

This delicate balance is toppled with the shocking appearance of Louis, the sexy French baker who once upon a time taught Esme to make her signature sourdough…and then broke her heart into crumbs. By Bread Alone is "an aromatic ode to the carbohydrate and a poignant tale of loves and lives lost and regained" (Booklist).
