Items related to An Alphabet for Gourmets
In Alphabet for Gourmets, M.F.K. Fisher arranges a selection of her essays in a whimsical way that reveals the breadth and depth of her passion. From A for (dining) alone to Z for Zakuski, "a Russian hors d'oeuvre," Fisher alights on both longtime obsessions and idiosyncratic digressions. As usual, she liberates her readers from caution and slavish adherence to culinary tradition-- and salts her writings with a healthy dose of humor.

About the Author:
Review:
M.F.K. Fisher is the author of numerous books of essays and reminiscences, many of which have become American classics.
“Since Mrs. Fisher wrote [An Alphabet for Gourmets], naturally it is witty, pungent and highly civilized, but also it has a special charm...It not only guides and titillates; it warms.” ―Rex Stout, The New York Times Book Review
“Full of sound counsel, shrewd observation, luscious memories of dinners eaten and wines drunk, and a lot of common sense spiced with personal recollection. It's a good mixture.” ―J.H. Jackson, San Francisco Chronicle
“Entertaining and knowledgeable.” ―The New Yorker
