The sequel to Pomegranate Soup which I haven't read. Continues the story of the Aminpour sisters Marjan, Bahar and Layla and their Persian cafe in small village Ireland. Weaves together themes of ethnicity, love, community spirit, compassion, cooking and religion effortlessly. Using the conceit of cooking as a metaphor for life, Rosewater And Soda Bread is delightful - I hope Marsha Mehran has a further sequel in the pipeline. I also hope that the it's predecessor is soon available! Would suit readers who liked Chocolat, Guernsey Literary etc..
