Description

Small Fires: An Epic in the Kitchen by Rebecca May Johnson is a thought-provoking exploration of cooking as a source of pleasure, constraint, and revolution. This debut work reimagines the act of cooking as a way to experience ourselves and the world. Johnson delves into the complexities of cooking, revealing its transformative dynamics and radical potential. She examines the liberating constraints of tying apron strings, the meaning of appetite and bodily pleasure, and the wild subversiveness of the recipe. The result is a joyful and revelatory work that complicates our understanding of life in the kitchen. The paperback edition includes a new afterword and recipes for Ten-Minute Tomatoes and Cream Pasta, Meatballs with Tomato and Tarragon Cream Sauce, among others.
