Alimentum: The Literature of Food

by Paulette Licitra (Editor)

Alimentum writers and poets capture food's elusive character (it's not just about what's on your plate); literature that dishes up life's events, big and small, sweet and salty. These are well seasoned stories, essays and poems making feasts of our daily bread. For readers who savor flavors, sip wine, moon over farmer's markets, root through grocery stores, love their kitchens, and relish the restaurant experience and want to go beyond the recipe to the artist's interpretation; to the literary depths of food.
