Aimee Nezhukumatathil presents Bite by Bite: Nourishments and Jamborees
In conversation with Roxane Gay

New York Times bestselling author Aimee Nezhukumatathil follows up her luminous collection of essays World of Wonders with Bite by Bite, a lyrical book of short essays about food, offering a banquet of tastes, smells, memories, associations, and marvelous curiosities from nature. Aimee Nezhukumatathil explores the way food and drink evoke our associations and remembrances—a subtext or layering, a flavor tinged with joy, shame, grief, desire, or nostalgia. Bite by Bite offers a rich kaleidoscope of vignettes and visions into the world of food and nature, drawn together by intimate and humorous personal reflections, with Fumi Nakamura’s gorgeous imagery and illustration. Aimee discusses her work with best-selling author Roxane Gay, along with a reading and book signing.

Tickets: $27.00 (book included)
