Make Book Club Lit Again: Recipes and Ideas to Bring Classics to Life

Colleen Connolly-Ahern's Make Book Club Lit Again is your guide to making book club better: four great book recommendations along with original recipes inspired by the books. Because when we eat with people and discuss ideas with them, we are also building networks and solidifying relationships. Her work has taken her to more than 40 countries, and introduced her to a wide range of characters and cuisines, many of which she shares in this book.

In this book, readers will find four very different book recommendations from different times and different cultures. They're accompanied by four international menus and other recommendations that will help bring the culture of the characters to life for any book club:

• A Korean menu to accompany The Tale of Chun Hyang, a traditional pansori
• A Medieval feast from France to go along with the Arthurian romance Erec and Enide
• Iberian recipes to accompany the epistolary novel Pepita Jimenez
• An English country menu for a Pride and Prejudice book club re-read

Whether you're a member looking to spice up your existing book club or a newbie looking to create your own, Connolly-Ahern's Make Book Club Lit Again will help you turn average meetings into sensory events the whole group will enjoy.
