Cleveland Review Of Books

Joined by special guest, fellow editor Alana Pockros, we talk with Emmeline Clein about her piece, “Recipes, Rumors, and Reminiscence: A Literary Cookbook Gift Guide.” “We talk about opulence, decadence, intransigence, dinner parties, the list as form, stealing husbands, anti-fascist pasta, Italian futurism, what Alice Toklas ate during before and after the war, considerations of oysters, and Salvador Dali.” Emmeline’s book “Dead Weight,” a cultural, political, and personal history of disordered eating, comes out in late February from Knopf.
