Food, digressions on the theme is a entertaining treat dedicated to food and beverages, eating and digesting. Food emerges in every expression of life. Cinema, music, and painting. Proverbs, religion. Capturing its many nuances is this volume, which lightly breezes over frivolities, without shying away from the historical analysis of food traces on our experience.
Between arts and letters, beliefs and myths, patron saints and zodiac signs, everyone can find meanings and memories of their relationship with nourishment.
