Consumption and the Literary Cookbook offers readers the first
book-length study of literary cookbooks. Imagining the genre more
broadly to include narratives laden with recipes, cookbooks based
on cultural productions including films, plays, and television
series, and cookbooks that reflected and/or shaped cultural and
historical narratives, the contributors draw on the tools of
literary and cultural studies to closely read a diverse corpus of
cookbooks. By focusing on themes of consumption-gastronomical and
rhetorical-the sixteen chapters utilize the recipes and the
narratives surrounding them as lenses to study identity, society,
history, and culture. The chapters in this book reflect the current
popularity of foodie culture as they offer entertaining analyses of
cookbooks, the stories they tell, and the stories told about them.
