Salty : lessons on eating, drinking, and living from revolutionary women / Alissa Wilkinson.

Wilkinson, Alissa, (author.).

Summary:

Film critic and food writer Alissa Wilkinson sits down with a hypothetical table of smart, engaging, revolutionary women of the twentieth century to explore the ways food centered each woman's creative work. As we meet these multifaceted women, we learn how to live with courage, smarts, saltiness, and sometimes feasting--even in uncertain times.
