[Food Writing] Fisher, M.F.K.

To Begin Again: Stories and Memoirs 1908-1929.

New York: Pantheon, 1992. First Printing of the First Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine unclipped dust jacket. Fisher ostensibly writes about food, but while doing so she created a genre, another way to talk passionately about all the hungers and satisfactions of the human heart. Some pieces were written as early as 1927, some as recently as 1990. All are suffused with her trademark wit, intelligence, and insight.This volume provides us with a portrait of Fisher's early life growing up in California, her first marriage and the people and events that led to her "learning to live well gastronomically."
