Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things.
Recipe reveals the surprising lessons that recipes teach, in addition to the obvious instructions on how to prepare a dish or perform a process. These include lessons in hospitality, friendship, community, family and ethnic heritage, tradition, nutrition, precision and order, invention and improvisation, feasting and famine, survival and seduction and love. A recipe is a signature, as individual as the cook's fingerprint; a passport to travel the world without leaving the kitchen; a lifeline for people in hunger and in want; and always a means to expand one's worldview, if not waistline. Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Bloomsbury AcademicISBN-13:9781501367106ISBN-10:1501367102UPC:9781501367106Book Category:Literary Criticism, Philosophy, Social ScienceBook Subcategory:Semiotics & Theory, Aesthetics, AnthropologyBook Topic:Cultural & SocialSize:6.46 x 4.82 x 0.56 inchesWeight:0.3395Product ID:SC3Y500HKQ
