Rachel Roddy never intended to stay in Rome, but two weeks after visiting the market at Testaccio, she signed a year-long lease on flat nearby. Five Quarters: Recipes and Notes from a Kitchen in Rome tells the story of that year and of the city she grew to love. Almost ten years since the first edition, Roddy reflects on her life today and the simplicity of Roman cooking.
