| Summary, etc. |
"In The Devil's Picnic, Taras Grescoe delivers a social history of prohibition as a nine-course meal. Beginning with appetizers and aperitifs and closing with dessert and digestifs, Grescoe delights in challenging the safety-conscious, the temperate ... and the authorities. He takes readers on a provocative tour through the forbidden fruits of Europe, Asia, and the Americas, exploring the mystique and aura that surround some of the world's most highly sought after - and often illegal - delicacies." "Unlike most armchair travel, riding shotgun with Grescoe isn't always comfortable. As he pursues his quarry, he looks at regional culture and repressive legislation - from the clandestine absinthe distillation in an obscure Swiss valley to the banning of poppy seed biscuits in Singapore - and throughout the meal, he calls into question the wisdom of interdiction and the motivation behind it. An investigation into the demonized and the vilified, The Devil's Picnic is a delicious journey into the heart of vice and desire."--BOOK JACKET. |
