Synopsis "Consuming the American Dream. Essays Celebrating the Intersection of Food, Literature, and Our National Myth"

This volume addresses the unique relationship between the American dream and the manifold ways in which food and food-related topics support and expand upon elements that constitute the American dream. The contributors discuss instances in which Americans of one heritage or another attempt to find freedom and fashion a life for themselves and a uniquely American identity. Through various forms of literature—novels, short stories, cookbooks, and memoirs—these essays explore the American Dream through a myriad of cultures, food, and their intertwined meanings.
