"This 'tasty' collection brings together five stories and extracts all with food at their heart. Food and literature have a long relationship and food is used to shed light on characters and relationships, from meals as the centre of family life to food as a political symbol. With all kinds of stories and all kinds of foods, there will be something for all literature (and food) lovers to enjoy."--Cover.
