This is a collection of essays written by Mary Frances Kennedy Fisher over the course of her life. They are personal introspection on the topics of her childhood, marriages, people she has known and places she has lived; all around the theme of food and enjoying food with those one loves.
If you have read her work before, you know that her use of language in writing is masterful and evocative. If you have not, you will find that reading her essays is an immersive and transformative experience.

Photographic and textual biography of writer, M.F.K. Fisher, beginning with her childhood in a Quaker town in Southern California, transitioning to her life as a young woman in France and finally the refuge of California wine country where she spent her final years.
