Cuoche sull’orlo di una crisi di nervi

Deaths, women’s chats, family secrets, unmentionable passions, pure and impure acts, prose and poetry, but above all a lot of taste and a lot of flavors in the films of Pedro Almodóvar. The strength of the images is evoked in the book Cuoche sull’orlo di una crisi di nervi with the intensity of the ingredients of the many traditional Spanish recipes that the director himself includes in the various film stories of his vast production. A culinary look at the most representative author of modern Spain, from his debut to Volver, in order to discover that food does not play a secondary role, but rather is sometimes even the protagonist, like the gazpacho in Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, the film that inspired author Luca Glebb Miroglio to title his book.


Luca Glebb Miroglio, founder of an important communication agency, is passionate about cooking and has a sweet tooth for literature.
