Critical Praise

"Delicious. Delectable. Truthful, funny, and poignant. Like a great recipe, Suzan Colón’s Cherries in Winter is a keeper and a treat to share with those you love."

—Adriana Trigiani, bestselling author of Big Stone Gap and Very Valentine

"Suzan Colón’s wonderful book reminds me of M.F.K. Fisher’s classic treatise on surviving in the kitchen during hard times, How to Cook a Wolf. Colón’s warm, poignant, honest voice and down-home, mouth-watering recipes make me want to go over to her house for dinner immediately."

—Kate Christensen, author of Trouble and winner of the PEN/Faulkner Award for The Great Man

"The narrative has ample Working Girl spunk and shifts deftly if quickly among stories and decades and geographies."

—Publishers Weekly
