Recenzii
Infused with a down-home feel and vernacular rhythms . . . this slim, lively book stimulates and elucidates, and is well worth chewing on.--Luis H. Francia, The Village Voice
"Shange stirs and simmers the soul and moves the reader/eater/cook to rethink every morsel of Pan-African history, personal celebration, and global pain that enters our lives when we gather around her magical hearth to laugh, to cry--but most indispensably--to eat."--Edwidge Danticat, author of The Farming of Bones
"This culinary memoir . . . is as valuable for its inspirational and factual nuggets as it is for its unusual recipes. . . . Soul-nourishing."--Carmela Ciuraru, Entertainment Weekly
"A captivating collection of African-American food memories, meditations and recipes." --Kathy Martin, Miami Herald
"Shange achieves . . . revolutionary splendor. She wraps history and legend and recipes and folklore around one big roti . . . makes a gumbo out of memories and laughter and recipes and black vernacular . . . throws spicy metaphors into recipes that have traveled from Africa and Brazil and the Caribbean and Brixton, England."--American Visions
"A fervent, richly impassioned chronicle of African American experience."--Booklist
