Review Crafting the Culture and History of French Chocolate / University of California Press:This absorbing narrative follows the craft community of French chocolatiers-members of a tiny group experiencing intensive international competition-as they struggle to ensure the survival of their businesses. Susan J. Terrio moves easily among ethnography, history, theory, and vignette, telling a story that challenges conventional views of craft work, associational forms, and training models in late capitalism. She enters the world of Parisian craft leaders and local artisanal families there and in southwest France to relate how they work and how they confront the representatives and structures of power, from taste makers, CEOs, and advertising executives to the technocrats of Paris and Brussels. Looking at craft culture and community from a cross-disciplinary perspective, Terrio finds that the chocolatiers affirm their collective identity and their place in the present by commemorating selectively their role in history. In addition to joining a distinguished tradition of American anthropological writing on the role of food, her study of the social production of taste in the invention of vintage, grand cru chocolates lends specificity and weight to theories of consumption by Pierre Bourdieu and others. The book will appeal to anthropologists, cultural studies scholars, and anyone curious about life in contemporary France.

Review Claudia Roden's the Food of Italy: Region by Region / Steerforth Italia:CONTAINING MORE THAN three hundred recipes, Claudia Roden’s timeless and enchanting book is set against a backdrop of the story of Italy and its people and is the most authoritative and approachable guide to one of the world’s best-loved cuisines by one of the great food writers of our time. For an entire year Roden traveled up and down Italy, through every region, taking in city and countryside, to discover the local specialties on their home ground. She visited the kitchens of both professional and private cooks, watching them at work and listening to their stories. From simple and rustic to grand bravura, the recipes collected here represent traditional regional dishes as they are cooked today in Italy, and as they can now be cooked with ease and delight in our own kitchens. The Sunday Telegraph has called The Food of Italy, “Excellent. a collection of delicious recipes chosen on the basis of strong flavors and ease of preparation. ” “A glorious feast of a book, a splendid history, geography and cooking lesson rolled into one,” says the Financial Times. “Claudia Roden is no more a simple cookbook writer than Marcel Proust was a biscuit baker. [+]She is, rather, a memorialist, historian, ethnographer, anthropologist, essayist, poet. ”- Simon Schama“Claudia Roden’s The Food of Italy is one of the most used and loved books on our bookshelf. Her knowledge and understanding of the regions and their food and culture makes this one of the most authentic of all Italian cookbooks. ”- Ruth Rogers And Rose Gray, The River Café.
