The Bread Baker of Rome
A Father's Manifesto on Food, Family, and LegacyBy Kenny Polcari
Length26m
About this audiobook
What will your tombstone say?
In an age of delivery apps, we have outsourced the primal duty of providing. This is not a cookbook. It is a father's manifesto on reclaiming competence, honor, and legacy at the family table.
Inspired by the story of an ancient Roman baker, author Kenny Polcari delivers a collection of searing dramatic monologues that reframe cooking as conquest and mastery as love. Learn why pasta water is the glue of empire, why a steak is a lesson in civilization, and how to become the irreplaceable creator in your own home.
Your family is hungry. Your legacy is waiting.
