Cather's Kitchens

"In this delightfully unusual book, the authors pinpoint where and how Cather used food preparation and eating to convey the texture of life on the Great Plains... A treat for literature lovers-and for cooks."-Booklist. "As a cookbook, Cather's Kitchens is unexpectedly delightful. As a commentary on Cather's work, the Welsches could not have selected a more appropriate subject, as domestic art for Cather was art of the highest order."-Great Plains Quarterly. "Food was not only an important motif in Cather's fiction, it was important in her life as well... [Cather's Kitchens] is redolent of Antonia's kolaches, of doughnuts and hickory nut cake, mile-high lemon pie, dark brown breads, roasting meats and homemade wine."-Associated Press.
