Publisher Description: With recipes from many, and contributions by Dorothy Allison, Maya Angelou, Letty Cottin Pogrebin, and Marge Piercy, among others, "Through the Kitchen Window" offers a fresh and delicious look at food and cooking as more than the makings of a meal. For the writers in this provocative collection, food is a cultural declaration, an expression of hidden hungers, a symbol of our intimate connections to one another. Including memories of Latina, Geechee, Chinese, and Indian kitchens, "Through the Kitchen Window" reveals everything from the painful struggle to overcome an eating disorder to the tantalizing delights of cornbread and barbecue eaten from a lover's hands, and challenges assumptions about women, food, and the true satisfaction of cooking.
