Book description
Recommended by Gayle'A book I wish I'd written myself. Laura Shapiro tells the stories of six women through the food they ate (or didn't, in the case of Helen Gurley Brown). It's filled with fascinating historical details - on catering for Edwardian high society in Rosa Lewis's case, and the bizarre diets of the Nazi Party elites in Eva Braun's. My favourite chapter is on Barbara Pym - a perfect potted account of why a) British food isn't as bad as people make out and b) you need to read all of Pym's novels immediately.'
