The author of Free the Tipple is back with another collection of
delectable cocktails-this time a literary mix inspired by the
world's most iconic women writers. The fifty recipes in this volume
are as unconventional, imaginative, and refreshing as the authors
that inspired them. Each double-page spread includes an
illustration of one important woman writer along with fascinating
background about her oeuvre, personality, and points of literary
distinction. And, of course, each profile is paired with a
delicious recipe for a fitting cocktail. Pulling from every
category-literary and genre fiction, poetry, graphic novels, essays
and nonfiction- this book offers some surprising twists as well as
old favorites. While each subject could provide hours of cocktail
chatter, the recipes themselves are also a unique conversation
starter: the Virginia Woolf-a peach-and-mint creation with a
modernist flair; the Octavia Butler-an uncompromising blend
featuring bourbon and port; the Jia Tolentino-a purple sparkler
that puts a cerebral twist on pop culture; and the Mary Shelley-an
unexpected combination of the Manhattan and the Margarita. Perfect
for literary-themed parties as well as intimate gatherings, this
book itself is an intoxicating, lip-loosening brew made of equal
parts sophistication and fun.
