Changes to HOW TO COOK A WOLF by M. F. K. Fisher

Shelfari edited the description of HOW TO COOK A WOLF Saturday, August 1 2009.

Written to inspire courage in those daunted by wartimes shortages, How to Cook a Wolf continues to rally cooks during times of plenty, reminding them that providing sustenance requires more than putting food on the table. M. F. K. Fisher knew that the last thing hungry people needed were hints on cutting back and making do. Instead, she gives her readers license to dream, to experiment, to construct adventurous and delicious meals as a bulwark against a dreary, meager present. Her fine prose provides reason in itself to draw our chairs close to the hearth; we can still enjoy her company and her exhortations to celebrate life by eating well.

Shelfari edited the first sentence of HOW TO COOK A WOLF Friday, July 17 2009.

In spite of all the talk and study about our next years, and all the silent ponderings about what lies within them for our sons <Why only sons? Since I wrote this I have acquired two daughters, and they too shape the pattern's pieces, and the texture of my belief!> it seems plain to us that many things are wrong in the present ones that can be, must be, changed.
