The Virtual Between the Lines Book Club reads From Scratch by Tembi Locke. Books for this discussion can be picked up at the Dyer-Schererville branch a month prior to the event.
It was love at first sight when Tembi met professional chef, Saro, on a street in Florence. There was just one problem: Saro's traditional Sicilian family did not approve of him marrying a black American woman, an actress no less. They built a life in Los Angeles, with fulfilling careers, deep friendships and a baby girl they adopt at birth. They reconciled with Saro's family just as he faces a formidable cancer that will consume all their dreams. In the Sicilian countryside, Tembi discovers the healing gifts of simple fresh food, the embrace of a close knit community, and timeless traditions and wisdom that light a path forward.
