Listmania!
I published my first-ever Amazon Listmania! list today. It’s called “The Literate Foodie.” No, I didn’t call it “Phoodie.” I’m sorry, Roman. I was hoping it would be more searchable, not realizing at the time that I could just tag it to make it more searchable.
At any rate, it’s a list of 40 books, videos, audiobooks, journals and other works related to our phavorite topic!
I compiled this because I’m working with another instructor to create a food-themed College Composition II course and possible an anthology of food-related readings. I’m also on the lookout for a foodie-type book to propose for next year’s Community Book Connection (a campus-wide book club, if you will). I figure what can we all relate to better than food? It’s something that can be studied across disciplines: the science, the arts and humanities, the social sciences, mathematics, applied technology, and we can come together as a college community around a variety of food-based activities.
At any rate, take a look at my list when you have a moment. If you have annotations for any of the works on the list, please, comment below, and I’ll add them. I haven’t read most of what’s there, and I haven’t yet added comments for what I have read/seen/heard. Help is appreciated in this department.
