-Titulo Original : Our Lady Of Perpetual Hunger A Memoir
-Fabricante :
Penguin Press
-Descripcion Original:
Named a Favorite Book for Southerners in 2020 by Garden & Gun Donovan is such a vivid writer-smart, raunchy, vulnerable and funny- that if her vaunted caramel cakes and sugar pies are half as good as her prose, well, Id be open to even giving that signature buttermilk whipped cream she tops her desserts with a try.”-Maureen Corrigan, NPRNoted chef and James Beard Award-winning essayist Lisa Donovan helped establish some of the Souths most important kitchens, and her pastry work is at the forefront of a resurgence in traditional desserts. Yet Donovan struggled to make a living in an industry where male chefs built successful careers on the stories, recipes, and culinary heritage passed down from generations of female cooks and cooks of color. At one of her career peaks, she made the perfect dessert at a celebration for food-world goddess Diana Kennedy. When Kennedy asked why she had not heard of her, Donovan said she did not know. I do, Kennedy said, Stop letting men tell your story. OUR LADY OF PERPETUAL HUNGER is Donovans searing, beautiful, and searching chronicle of reclaiming her own story and the narrative of the women who came before her. Her familys matriarchs found strength and passion through food, and they inspired Donovans accomplished career. Donovans love language is hospitality, and she wants to welcome everyone to the table of good food and fairness. Donovan herself had been told at every juncture that she wasnt enough: she came from a struggling southern family that felt ashamed of its own mixed race heritage and whose elders diminished their women. She survived abuse and assault as a young mother. But Donovans salvations were food, self-reliance, and the network of women in food who stood by her. In the school of the late John Egerton, OUR LADY OF PERPETUAL HUNGER is an unforgettable Southern journey of class, gender, and race as told at table. Review “The pastry chef Lisa Donovan knows the insides of some of the South’s top restaurant kitchens even better than people think they want to know them. In her moving, real-talk memoir, the James Beard Award-winning writer describes beautifully the current, sometimes painful moment that Southern writers, editors, and chefs-perhaps especially women-have found themselves in as the world at large seems enamored by Southern food.” -Garden & Gun, Favorite Books for Southerners in 2020“Donovan is such a vivid writer-smart, raunchy, vulnerable and funny- that if her vaunted caramel cakes and sugar pies are half as good as her prose, well, Id be open to even giving that signature buttermilk whipped cream she tops her desserts with a try. . . . Our Lady of Perpetual Hunger is about the multiple hungers that Donovan has been driven to satisfy in her life-for wonderful food, certainly, but also for love and community and for gratifying work that can support a family.” -Maureen Corrigan, NPR “An absolutely stupendous memoir…defines a philosophy that I value very much: good old American pragmatism-what is most useful is most truthful… She’s an amazing chef, she’s an amazing person, an amazing mom… [Now,] the world will finally get to see what an unbelievable writer she is. She is gifted in ways that most people, even good writers, are not… [Donovan] finally has a platform to let the world know just how talented she is.” -Dave Chang, chef of the Momofuku restaurants and host of “Ugly Delicious” “Lisa is an all-around perfect person, and this book tells the story of one of my favorite people.” -Matty Matheson, New York Magazine “Our Lady of Perpetual Hunger from Southern pastry royalty Lisa Donavan won’t steer you wrong. A heady cocktail of love, family, food, and the fire that drives her personal and professional journey, Donavan really knows how to wring out the marrow in a story, how to bring you into a world that is etched and fleshed out with tremendous skill and a singular voice.” -Thrillist “With anger, honesty, wit and pass
