East Meets West
Author: Barbara Jayson
EAST MEETS WEST is a celebrity cookbook in support of the tsunami victims in Indonesia and Sri Lanka. Featuring recipes by the cream of the international culinary world and articles by top wine writers including; Nigella Lawson, Jamie Oliver, Gary Rhodes, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, Keith Floyd, Ainsley Harriot, Rick Stein, Antony Worral Thompson, Ken Hom and Jancis Robinson.
EAST MEETS WEST developed from the reaction of two ordinary British women, Barbara Jayson and Jenny de Montfort to the shocking Boxing Day disaster. Having met several years ago in Indonesia they knew they had to do something and decided to create a truly international cookbook to raise funds for mother and baby charities in Indonesia and Sri Lanka. Without knowing a single celebrity chef they set about contacting potential contributors and, having received a commitment from Nigella Lawson, the project snowballed.
The book is a superb quality, full-colour, 256 page hardback, fully illustrated throughout and is sure to be the biggest cookbook of 2005. Over 9,000 copies have been sold in the first week with a third of these going to overseas distributors. Within a day of publication an enquiry for 15,000 copies was received from one of the main UK book clubs. All main High Street retailers are stocking the book which is also available via Amazon.
EAST MEETS WEST is published by Accent Press, an independent publishing company based in Wales. The company was founded in 2003 by Hazel Cushion who has since won the Pandora Women in Publishing prize and Entrepreneur of the Year award. Accent Press already has a reputation for publishing charity books.
