In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I speak to Claire Powell, author of the brilliant 2022 debut novel At the Table. Centred around the Maguire family over a series of meals, At the Table follows Nicole and Jamie as they find out their parents are separating and their lives begin to unravel. In the episode, we talk about the politics of family meals, eating during fertility treatment and the joys of a long, boozy lunch (though not at the same time).
