From Pasta to Pigfoot
From Pasta to Pigfoot | Frances Mensah Williams
2 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
A contemporary, multi-cultural novel that tells the story of Faye Bonsu, a pasta-loving, underachieving PA whose upbringing in leafy Hampstead, London has given her little opportunity to understand her African heritage. Her less than successful attempts to be seen as more than a cultural lightweight take Faye on a journey back to her native Ghana, where she finds love, culture galore and the confidence to fulfil her potential. From Pasta to Pigfoot explores in a light-hearted way the clash of cultures in this modern, multicultural world.

I feel like I actually went on a trip to Ghana! 🇬🇭
The story follows Faye, who was brought up in England and has little connection to her native Ghana. When she finally travels there, the book depicts all the adventures she finds there, no event is just skipped or mentioned in passing. You are there and I did enjoy that a lot. Also very refreshing, down-to-earth romance without any artificial drama.⬇️

I'm reading the sequel to this at the moment (can't find it in the database) which is suffering badly from lets hint/try to split up the couple for conflict syndrome.
