I have to define good a little differently here. This book is wonderful to read. It has interviews with 50 Italian cooks of the grandmother generation and its stated goal is to document their recipes before they disappear since even the Italians don't cook like this any more. So some of the recipes are very doable - some not so much. My favorite of the latter is the one that starts - 8 days before you want to serve this. But for those of you who - like me - love to read cookbooks in bed, this is a fascinating one.
