The mad feast : an ecstatic tour through America's food / Matthew Gavin Frank. by Frank, Matthew Gavin, author. New York : Liveright Publishing Corporation, c2015. Subjects Cooking, American.   Cooking -- United States.   United States -- Social life and customs. ISBN:  9781631490736 (hardcover) : 1631490737 (hardcover) : Description:  xiii, 418 pages : illustrations ; 25 cm Edition:  First edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  Essayist Matthew Gavin Frank examines a quintessential dish in each state, interweaving the culinary with personal and cultural associations of each region. From key lime pie (Florida) to elk stew (Montana), The Mad Feast commemorates the unexpected origins of the familiar. Dissecting the myriad intersections between history and food, Frank considers politics, sexuality, violence, grief, and pleasure: the cool, creamy whoopie pie evokes toughness in the face of New England winters, while the stewlike perloo serves up an exploration of food and race in the South. Tracing an unpredictable map of our collective appetites, The Mad Feast presents a flavor profile of the American spirit.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 641.5973 Fr Checked In Add Copy to MyList
