Book Smart Book Club – “Coming to My Senses” by Alice Waters

May 8, 2019 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Coming to My Senses book cover

In May, the book club will meet on Wednesday, May 8th from 2-3 pm in the reference area of the Language, Literature and History Section to discuss Coming to My Senses: The Making of a Counterculture Cook by Alice Waters. The call number is 641.5092 Waters.

When Alice Waters opened the doors of her “little French restaurant” Chez Panisse, in Berkeley, California in 1971 at the age of 27, no one ever anticipated the indelible mark it would leave on the culinary landscape. Dotted with stories, recipes, photographs, and letters, Coming to My Senses is at once deeply personal and modestly understated, a quietly revealing look at one woman’s evolution from a rebellious yet impressionable follower to a respected activist who effects social and political change on a global level through the common bond of food.

This book club typically meets on the first Wednesday of the month and new members are always welcome. No registration necessary. Inquiries can be directed to booksmartbookclub@gmail.com or 808-586-3499.
