CLARKE, AUSTIN - Pigs Tails 'n Breadfruit: Rituals of slave food : a Barbadian Memoir

Toronto, Random House Canada. 1999, 1st Canadian Edition. (ISBN: 067930956X) Hardcover. Book, Austin Clarke grew up in Barbados, enveloped in the heavenly smells and smoke of women cooking. From them, he learned how to prepare the beloved dishes of the island - Rich Golden Roast Pork, Fried King Fish, Breadfruit Cou-Cou and, of course, his very own Chicken Austintacious. He shares his recipes for these hearty meals and reminisces about the "slave" food that was so much a part of his life. Whether it's a story about the village butcher whose qualifications were somewhat suspect, or a sure-fire route to a woman's love through her stomach, Austin Clarke will make you hungry for the "hot cuisine" and spirit of the island. 248p. Inscribed by author 22 February 2002, else as new. As New/As New. Signed by Author(s).
