Join Porter Square Books for an author signing and meet and greet with Tamar Adler, author of An Everlasting Meal.
“An Everlasting Meal is
beautifully intimate, approaching cooking as a narrative that begins
not with a list of ingredients or a tutorial on cutting an onion, but
with a way of thinking…. Tamar is one of the great writers I know—her
prose is exquisitely crafted, beautiful and clear-eyed and open, in the
thoughtful spirit of M.F.K. Fisher. This is a book to sink into and read
deeply.” Alice Waters, from the Foreword
“In
this beautiful book, Tamar Adler explores the difference between frugal
and resourceful cooking. Few people can turn the act of boiling water
into poetry. Adler does. By the time you savor the last page, your
kitchen will have transformed into a playground, a boudoir and a wide
open field. An Everlasting Meal deserves to be an instant and everlasting culinary classic.” Raj Patel, author of The Value of Nothing
