Tasting Home: Coming of Age in the Kitchen

A memoir about our longing for home, about the many forms that home can take, and about the role of food in our having it.

"Engaging," "delightful and resonant" with "honesty, well-drawn characters, and plenty of insight." Publisher's Weekly Starred Review ("Outstanding in its genre.")

"This is a baby-boomer's dream: a book full of anecdotes about coming of age during the sexual revolution of the sixties — with recipes! ... an ingeniously conceived, tightly written, and beautifully packaged memoir, a vibrant portrait of the American feminine cultural experience from the 1950s forward."
