The Gastronomy of Marriage
A Memoir of Food and Love
By Michelle Maisto
“First-time memoirist Maisto turns out a subtle valentine to cooking and New York City life in this chronicle of two foodies in love.” — Publisher’s Weekly
“Foodies who have also navigated a valuable and deepening relationship fraught with eating concerns will especially enjoy this story of passions of the heart and table, filled with glorious descriptions of meals and the couple's special recipes.” — Book Reporter
"An imminently readable memoir, you have been warned — it will make your mouth water." — The Independent Weekly
“… a warm and very human exploration, phrased around one of the most basic of experiences: the sharing of food.” — Basil and Spice
“This book should come with a warning; devour it at bedtime and you may find yourself feeling a little peckish.” — The Financial Times
"The Gastronomy of Marriage by Michelle Maisto is a book I just want to hug or maybe marry. I loved it, it definitely makes the cut for a space on my bookshelf.” — Literacy Love
Michelle chats with The Frisky about, among other things, being the nightly dinner-maker. “Food is essential for life, of course, but it’s also a vital component of relationships,” writes Catherine Strawn.
