'If you find the subject of food to be both vexing and transfixing,
you'll love What She Ate' Elle Did you know that Eleanor Roosevelt
dished up Eggs Mexican (a concoction of rice, fried eggs, and
bananas) in the White House? Or that Helen Gurley Brown's
commitment to 'having it all' meant dining on supersized portions
of diet gelatine? In the irresistible What She Ate, Laura Shapiro
examines the plates, recipe books and shopping trolleys of six
extraordinary women, from Dorothy Wordsworth to Eva Braun. Delving
into diaries, newspaper articles, cook books and more, Shapiro
casts a different light on the usual narratives of women's lives.
Finding meaning in every morsel, and looking through the lens of
their attitudes towards food, she masterfully reveals the love and
rage, desire and denial, need and pleasure, behind six remarkable
appetites.
