Poet of the Appetites Paperback - 2005
by Joan Reardon
Christened by John Updike as the "poet of the appetites," M.F.K. Fisher changed the way Americans understood the art of living. But she was also a master mythologizer. This multifaceted portrayal is no less memorable than the personae Fisher crafted for herself.
First line
At the age of sixty-one, Mary Frances Kennedy Fisher could not resist the opportunity to enhance her entrance on the stage of the world into a drama of extraordinary derring-do: I began in Albion, Michigan, and was born there on July 3, 1908, in a heat wave.
