Aesthetic Pleasure in Twentieth-Century Women's Food Writing

The Innovative Appetites of M.F.K. Fisher, Alice B. Toklas, and Elizabeth David

Beschreibung

This book explores the aesthetic pleasures of eating and writing in the lives of M.F.K. Fisher, Alice B. Toklas, and Elizabeth David. Each of these women pioneered an idiosyncratic form of writing that challenged the rigidly gendered bounds of nineteenth-century food writing to establish a twentieth-century tradition that celebrates female appetite.
