SHOW ME (HOW) TO LIVE - A Novel

Chef Marco Bertone will die.

As Executive Chef and Owner of the Michelin rated ‘Marc,’ Chef Bertone has become something of a local legend. Facing a diagnosis of stomach cancer, Marco prepares for the fight of his life.

While he struggles to hold onto his passion for food and to reassemble the pieces of a broken family, Marco finds an unlikely companion in his hospital roommate. Together, they share the stories that help them remember, and explore the dreams that help them forget.

Inspired by the internationally acclaimed ‘Ikiru,’ Show Me (How) To Live pays homage to master filmmaker Akira Kurosawa. This is the story of how one man makes sense of what it truly means to live.
