Sesilee Thomas Shares the Rich, Culinary Tradition from the British Virgin Isles in Faith-Filled Memoir Slated for London Book Fair 2024

The London Book Fair is hardly an event exclusive to British authors. The books that will go on display will feature voices from many corners of the world, each one striving to preserve a cultural identity while also sharing a personal story.

Sesilee Thomas is one good example, seeking to represent both the traditions of the British Virgin Islands as well as her Christian faith in her aptly titled memoir “My Story.”

Born to parents from the island of Tortola, Sesilee would eventually nurse a budding culinary passion, drawing upon the traditional recipes passed down in her family. Her upbringing teaches her a certain rhythm to life “harmonized with the aromas of shared meals and the warmth of family bonds.” She even includes a couple of her best recipes inside, encouraging readers to have a taste of it themselves.

Sesilee does not downplay the role of her faith during her life, but the details (coupled with multiple photographs) show just how much of it was developed against the cultural backdrop of her island home. Readers will certainly come to a point where she describes her decision to immigrate to America, but she carries much of that upbringing in her heart. With its display at the London Book Fair 2024, she hopes to showcase her Tortolian roots to even more readers worldwide.

Curious readers can easily find “My Story” by Sesilee Thomas displayed at the self-publishing and book marketing company ReadersMagnet’s exhibit at stand #6A90 during the London Book Fair. The book publishing trade fair will take place on March 12-14, 2024, at the Olympia London, London, UK. Get the book on Amazon.
