The Gastronomical She
by Julia Reed for NY Times Books (Dec. 24, 2006)
“In the introduction to “The Gastronomical Me,” published in 1943, M. F. K. Fisher wrote: “It seems to me that our three basic needs, for food and security and love, are so mixed and mingled and entwined that we cannot straightly think of one without the others. So it happens that when I write of hunger, I am really writing about love and the hunger for it, and warmth and the love of it … and it is all one.” “
