Pairing 100 famous authors, poets, and playwrights from the
Victorian age to today with recipes for their iconic drinks of
choice, How to Drink Like a Writer is the perfect guide to getting
lit(erary) for madcap mixologists, book club bartenders, and
cocktail enthusiasts. Do you long to trade notes on postmodernism
over whiskey and jazz with Haruki Murakami? Have you dreamed of
sharing martinis with Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton after poetry
class? Maybe a mojito-a real one, like they serve at La Bodeguita
del Medio in Havana-is all you need to summon the mesmerizing power
of Hemingway's prose. Writer's block? Summon the brilliant musings
of Truman Capote with a screwdriver-or, "my orange drink," as he
called it-or a magical world like J.K. Rowling's with a perfect gin
and tonic. With 100 spirited drink recipes and special sections
dedicated to writerly haunts like the Algonquin of the New Yorker
set and Kerouac's Vesuvio Cafe, pointers for hosting your own
literary salon, and author-approved hangover cures, all accompanied
by original illustrations of ingredients, finished cocktails,
classic drinks, and favorite food pairings, How to Drink Like a
Writer is sure to inspire, invoke, and inebriate-whether you are
courting the muse, or nursing a hangover. Sure, becoming a famous
author takes dedication, innate talent, and sometimes nepotism. But
it also takes vodka, gin, tequila, and whiskey.
