An anthology of fiction and non fiction pieces and excerpts centering around food, cooking and eating. Several pieces contain recipes, although not any I would attempt to follow. Very much an artefact of its time (the mid-nineties) and with a majority of male contributors, and a prevailing tone of superiority and self satisfaction I am reminded of a certain, once ubiquitous, male dominated, intellectual style that I am grateful has mostly disappeared - or at least is no longer represented in my library.

A collection of short works having to do with yes, food, by various authors, including J.M. Coetzee, Graham Swift, Giles Foden among others. Interesting, informative, and thought-provoking, with writings about vegetarianism, aphrodisiacs, women and cooking in 1950s America, an experiment on men as chickens (cooked up by a weird British lady advocating for animal rights, here against "inhumane" treatment of battery chickens), unusual foods, cannibalism, etc etc. ( )
