Eat This Poem

<b>A literary cookbook that<i> </i>celebrates food and poetry two of life's essential ingredients.</b> <p/>In the same way that salt seasons ingredients to bring out their flavors poetry seasons our lives; when celebrated together our everyday moments and meals are richer and more meaningful. The twenty-five inspiring poems in this book--from such poets as Marge Piercy Louise Glück Mark Strand Mary Oliver Billy Collins Jane Hirshfield--are accompanied by seventy-five recipes that bring the richness of words to life in our kitchen on our plate and through our palate. <i>Eat This Poem</i> opens us up to fresh ways of accessing poetry and lends new meaning to the foods we cook.
