Fun! submitted by eapearce on May 1, 2015, 3:32pm Author Dinah Fried has chosen a unique array of meals from literature and recreated them for this fun book. The description of the meals from the given book is shown on one page and then a photograph of Fried's recreation is shown on the opposite. It's fun to read the actual commentary on the meal and then see how Fried interpreted it. One note: this is more of an art book than a cookbook. There are no recipes included. I preferred it this way, but if you're looking for details about the meals, you won't find them.
