Literary Feasts: Recipes from the Classics of Literature by Barbara Scrafford
"We crave the victuals of a favorite heroine or hero just as we long to touch the ground where cherished books are set [...]. Such a visit enlarges the reading experience, and it makes more a part of our own lives. When one has seen the sights, smelled the smells, and tasted the food, the book comes to life in our own sensory perceptions. And so it was this desire - to know more fully my favourite books - that I came to write Literary Feasts." --- Barbara Scrafford, Introduction to Literary Feasts
