In Jean K. Baird's novel, 'That Little Girl of Miss Eliza's,' Baird explores the intricacies of social class and racial segregation in the American South during the early 20th century. The novel's rich and descriptive prose immerses the reader in a world where societal norms dictate individuals' interactions and opportunities. With a keen eye for detail, Baird paints a vivid picture of the challenges faced by both the wealthy white families and the African American servants who navigate a complex and often unjust social landscape. Baird's literary style elegantly weaves together multiple narrative threads to create a compelling and thought-provoking story that delves into themes of power, privilege, and personal agency. 'That Little Girl of Miss Eliza's' is a poignant and timely reflection on the enduring impacts of systemic inequality and the resilience of the human spirit. Jean K. Baird's own background as a historian and social commentator lends depth and authenticity to the novel, making it a must-read for anyone interested in American history and literature.

INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER Good Housekeeping Book Club Pick * A Country Living Best Book of Fall * A Washington Post Best Feel-Good Book of the Year * One of the New York Times's Best Historical Fiction Novels of Fall In a novel perfect for fans of Hazel Gaynor’s A Memory of Violets and upstairs-downstairs stories, Annabel Abbs, the award-winning author of The Joyce Girl, returns with the brilliant real-life story of Eliza Acton and her assistant as they revolutionized British cooking and cookbooks around the world. Before Mrs. Beeton and well before Julia Child, there was Eliza Acton, who changed the course of cookery writing forever. England, 1835. London is awash with thrilling new ingredients, from rare spices to exotic fruits. But no one knows how to use them. When Eliza Acton is told by her publisher to write a cookery book instead of the poetry she loves, she refuses—until her bankrupt father is forced to flee the country. As a woman, Eliza has few options. Although she’s never set foot in a kitchen, she begins collecting recipes and teaching herself to cook. Much to her surprise she discovers a talent – and a passion – for the culinary arts. Eliza hires young, destitute Ann Kirby to assist her. As they cook together, Ann learns about poetry, love and ambition. The two develop a radical friendship, breaking the boundaries of class while creating new ways of writing recipes. But when Ann discovers a secret in Eliza’s past, and finds a voice of her own, their friendship starts to fray. Based on the true story of the first modern cookery writer, Miss Eliza’s English Kitchen is a spellbinding novel about female friendship, the struggle for independence, and the transcendent pleasures and solace of food.
