Description

There are so many paths that stem from the simple, indispensable, and fundamental need to nourish oneself. Starting from the premise that all actions of Italian men are imbued with references to cuisine, these references are also found in literature, and it is there that we seek information to understand a little more about this Italian being and his visceral relationship with all acts related to food practices. Literature referred to food when, perhaps, writing began to be part of human activities. Sometimes food becomes a landscape, a setting, an objective, or the thread that runs through a literary plot. If it is true that we cannot understand literature without referring to the binomials love-sex and power-money, the two great literary engines of the last two centuries, it is also true that food is closely related to them. For, as the writer Elsa Morante said, "the truest and only phrase of love is: Have you eaten?"
