Oor hierdie boek:

In this humorous coming-of-age memoir, young Costa finds himself in the middle of a matriarchal triangle. His sulky mother Victoria is forced to share her kitchen with both her conservative Greek mother-in-law and her bossy sister-in-law. A raucous war in the kitchen takes place, not only for oven territory but also for the affection of their beloved "Kostaki". An intricately woven portrait of the Greek immigrant experience of a family, trying to navigate South Africa in the 1960’s and 70s.
