An ode to the simple, sunny brilliance of the lemon, this is a one-of-a-kind cookbook and collaboration between Ruthie Rogers, the celebrated chef behind London's River Café, and Ed Ruscha, one of the most influential contemporary artists and bookmakers of our time, who cultivates a lemon grove at his home in Los Angeles.

In the hands of Rogers and Ruscha, the humble lemon is transformed into the ultimate kitchen hero. Packed with fifty inventive recipes, the book casts the lemon as the star of sweet and savory dishes alike. Whether you are whipping up a creamy risotto al limone, baking a showstopping lemon tart, or brightening a salad with a burst of citrus, Rogers's signature style makes every recipe, from appetizers to mains, approachable and unforgettable.

Elevating this journey is the singular artistry of Ed Ruscha, whose images, created specifically for this project, transform this book into a visual delight. Ruscha's style is both visually accessible and intellectually layered and invites viewers to appreciate the beauty in the very ordinary and mundane. Known for documenting a single subject in intensive detail, a Ruscha book is an instant collectible.
