Decorative dust jacket with sticker at back quoting a Newsweek review. The dust jacket as some wear and soiling. Introduction by L. John Harris. Translated from the French revised edition. "On the enchanting Greek island of Symi, Daniel Spoerri, the celebrated European artist and writer, dreams, cooks, reflects, eats and records every delectable detail in his diary. Complete with recipes, fascinating references to ancient and classical cooking principles, and portraits of the island's colorful characters, the diary, which Spoerri calls 'A Gastronomique Itinerary', is a remarkable contribution to the literature on cookery." Daniel Spoerri (born 27 March 1930) is a Swiss artist and writer born in Romania. Spoerri is best known for his "snare-pictures," a type of assemblage or object art, in which he captures a group of objects, such as the remains of meals eaten by individuals, including the plates, silverware and glasses, all of which are fixed to the table or board, which is then displayed on a wall. He is acclaimed for his book, Topographie Anécdotée* du Hasard (An Anecdoted Topography of Chance), in which he mapped all the objects located on his table at a particular moment, describing each with his personal recollections evoked by the object. A theme of Spoerri's artwork is food, and he has called this aspect of his work "Eat Art." He published in 1970, a diary of his life on the Greek island of Symi, in which he included numerous recipes of the dishes he ate there. Extracted from a description found on Kitchen Arts and Letters website: This book has a kind of mythic standing. It is frequently referred to and much discussed, but even its devotees find it difficult to say exactly what it is. The author, Daniel Spoerri (1930- ), born in Romania and raised in Switzerland, is a man who also defies genreâ"artist, traveler, self-taught literary historian, sometime ballet dancer, lecturer, essayist, and even, for a time, restaurateur. Spoerri defines his offering here as a diary and a cookbook, derived from time spent on the Greek island of Symi in the Aegean Sea off the coast of Turkey. But it is ever so much more, moving comfortably from geographical description to highly informal recipes, bits and pieces of personal revelation, anthropological notes, sardonic humor, entertaining scholarly footnotes, sympathetic accounts of country life, his own fine line drawings, and even an extended "dissertation" on keftedesâ"the meatballs of the title. He calls the diaristic portion of the book his "Gastronomic Itinerary," and it is one entertaining piece of writingâ"either to browse or to read right through. The "recipes" are, to put it mildly, cosmopolitan, ranging from a local soupa do psari (fish soup) or a poppy seed-coated lamb filet flambeed in beer to a somewhat surprising chile con carne or an unexpected corned beef salad. The commentary and the accounts of how and when the meals were served and eaten are irresistible. Spoerri's book has the devotion to linking the food and the place. It is thoughtful, entertaining, at times wacky, and very much different from what most of us think about when we hear the words "diary" or "cookbook." Originally written and published in French in 1970, the material was reassembled and published in 1982 by the brilliant but short-lived Aris Books in Berkeley, California. Relatively few copies were issued in any edition, and the book is not widely seen. Jeanne Jambu (illustrator). …
