Buzzworthy: Cocktails Inspired by Female Literary Greats
Shipping calculated at checkout
Celebrating the imagination of fifty accomplished women writers in a variety of fields, this collection of cocktail recipes (some of which are alcohol-free) is just as likely to inspire you to pick up a book as it is a glass. And we mean that in the best possible way.
Each full-page author profile illuminates both the context in which the women wrote (or continue to write) and their influence on other writers and wider culture. Author Jennifer Croll has a good eye for telling details in the writers’ biographies, as well as knowledge of favorite tipples which are often the basis for her recipes. Among the historical writers given a glass to raise:
- Emily Dickson
- Jane Austen
- Zora Neale Hurston
- Mary Shelley
And from contemporary pages we find:
- Toni Morrison
- Celeste Ng
- Octavia E. Butler
- Rupi Kaur
- Alison Bechdel
Hardcover. Attractively, buoyantly illustrated by Rachelle Baker.
