Congratulations Giulia and your family on your hard work producing such a wonderful cookbook. I received mine today and it is a delight to read. I am planning what I am going to cook over the next week. I am enjoying reading each story associated with each traditional recipe. Thank you for sharing so many recipes. ♥️

I’m really enjoying reading and cooking with Cucina Povera. Photos are wonderful!

Made the Oxtail Stew last night. It was delicious! Thank you

I’m so excited to cook from your book! I ordered it in January and when it was released earlier this month, Amazon has been telling me that it’s still not available. I’m in France, so not sure if anyone else is having a problem? Thank you for any help.

Hello Jennifer, unfortunately there have been distribution problems with Amazon in Europe. If you can locate an international bookstore near you, I'd suggest you to order the book from them, usually that's the only solution! :(

Ok. I guess I’ll try to cancel with Amazon

Giulia Scarpaleggia's avatar

Yes, unfortunately it’s the only way 😩

I bought this book and just got it yesterday. It is filled with recipes I can't wait to try. I am so excited to learn about the Tuscan foods and traditions! The book is beautiful, with gorgeous photography and vivid descriptions. I also listen to the podcast and find it so relaxing and informative. Thank you Giulia from Lisa in NYC:)

And once again you remind me how fun the podcast is, and what a great, deep connection it creates with our readers/listeners. thank you! :)

The US bookstore is sold out of your signed copy, and I would love to get one for my daughter. Any chance you'll sign some on the future? Thanks, and continued success.

Giulia Scarpaleggia's avatar

Hello Frank, thank you so so much for your message! We will be working on that, and I'll keep you posted!! Where are you based?

A pre-ordered copy arrived on my IPad Mini Kindle App on 4/4! I rarely buy hard copies of any books now as I want access to them in our homes in USA & Italy. It is indeed a beautiful and thoughtful collection of recipes, stories and resources. My first in depth reading session will likely be at the airport next week as we head back to Italy! Too little free time now with many preparations for our departure for 6 months! Congratulations to you and Tommaso! Tantissimi auguri ed anche di Buona Pasqua!🎉🥂
