The Ex-Boyfriend Cookbook: They Came, They Cooked, They Left (But We Ended Up with Some Great Recipes)

Rating:
Summary: It's on my Women's Lit reading list!
Review: This book is not only humorous, it is smart. The authors have managed to put forth a work of post-feminism that puts the men in the kitchen. The short stories that accompany the recipes allow the authors the chance to muse on loves that have left their lives, but in no way have left them bitter or helpless. Instead, they have taken what was left and made it sweet--or in some cases savory! The Ex-Boyfriend Cookbook is on my reading list for the Women's Lit course I teach in fall.
