Unforgettable to be published by Grand Central Publishing

Wonderful news out today for Emily Thelin and her labor of love, Unforgettable: The Bold Flavors of Paula Wolfert’s Renegade Life – Grand Central Life & Style will be publishing the book later this year.

Multiple publishers originally passed on this project which resulted in the determined Unforgettable team turning to crowd funding to finance the publication. In record time, the project was fully backed and the success that has followed this book has been astounding and richly deserved.

Unforgettable was officially released earlier this year and I had the honor of interviewing Emily about this tribute to one of the true trailblazers of Mediterranean cooking Paula Wolfert in March.

Critics, cookbook lovers and culinary giants alike have noticed the brilliance of this work: 

“All recipes are, in some way, an exploration of the link between food and memory. We cook the food we remember loving and, in so doing, make new connections and bonds. The amount of love, through food, Paula has given so many over the years makes this biography-cum-cookbook a truly wonderful project.”  Yotam Ottolenghi

Every serious food person knows that Paula Wolfert changed our world, but in this book we learn what a fascinating time she had while she was doing it. Part biography, part cookbook, part history, Unforgettable introduces our greatest cookbook writer to the wider audience she deserves. There has never been a book quite like this one.”  Ruth Reichl

“Unforgettable is a brilliant summation of the resilience, exuberance, and expertise that we know and love of Paula Wolfert.  Mario Batali

We’re all truly indebted to Emily Kaiser Thelin, Eric Wolfinger, Andrea Nguyen, and Toni Tajima for capturing these beautiful, inspiring, and very important memories of Paula’s life and travels. April Bloomfield

“Unforgettable is the story of the exacting, passionate, genuine, driven and indefatigable Paula Wolfert, the ultimate expert on the cooking of the Mediterranean. Emily Kaiser Thelin’s well-written and poignant narrative recounts the tale of this true pioneer of American culinary history.” Jacques Pépin

Grand Central’s release of Unforgettable will be available on October 17, 2017. There are limited copies of the first edition available, please check our BUY BOOK button to be directed to Amazon or check the Unforgettable Paula website for other details.
