Food and Booze A Tin House Literary Feast

Welcome to literature's wildest dinner party, where the booze flows freely and the food may induce hallucinations. This collection of food and drink writing from the award-winning literary journal Tin House views life through the prism of hunger and literature, which makes for heady combinations: love and gyoza, mortality and take-out, illicit romance and hollow-hearted greens, success and squirrel casserole. Funny, melancholy, always original, Food & Booze is a devilish, decadent feast. Book jacket.
