Joyce of Cooking or The Raincoast Kitchen

Joyce of Cooking: Food and Drink in James Joyce's Dublin

Author: Alison Armstrong

With recipes for over 200 dishes mentioned in the writings of James Joyce, and with each recipe accompanied by a relevant passage from "Ulysses or "Finnegan's Wake, this literary cookbook is both a comprehensive presentation of the delights of Irish cuisine, and, for the reader of James Joyce who does not happen to be a cook, a delightful journey through that celebrated author's gastronomic universe.

Library Journal

A nice sidebar to the vast literature devoted to James Joyce. Armstrong, noting that the novels are full of food, has collected traditional Irish recipes and given them titles and epigraphs based on the words of the master, most often from Ulysses I Beg Your Parsnips, Do Ptake Some Ptarmigan, Poached Eyes on Ghost. Recipes seldom partake of these flights of fancy but are straightforward dishes of a kind ordinary Dubliners like Leopold and Molly Bloom would have eaten in 1904. A jeu d'esprit that Joyceans will enjoy. RD
