On Eating is more than a memoir; in true Alicia Kennedy style, it is also on desire, on the roles of women “in the kitchen,” on domesticity, on diaspora, on foodways and food sovereignty, on home and how we find home through food, on how food can help us bring us back to those we love.Beautifully rooted in place—from Long Island (on oysters, on martinis) to San Juan (on plantains, on sugar), On Eating is not only a provocative bildungsroman and a celebration of appetite, it also challenges each of us to consider our own relationship with food, and how our need to eat—to live—impacts the world.Ultimately, On Eating is a paean food and those who grow and cook it, asking the urgent questions in our world today about what and how we eat.About the SpeakersAlicia KennedyAlicia's work has appeared in The Financial Times, The Yale Review, Harper’s Bazaar, the Guardian, British Vogue, and the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Food Studies—as well as many other outlets.
