Salty: Lessons on Eating, Drinking, and Living from Revolutionary Women by Alissa Wilkinson
4.0
This book gives look at nine interesting women the author would like to invite to a dinner party. In each chapter she discusses a particular woman and why she wants her at her table. At the end of each chapter she includes a brief bibliography for further reading and a recipe inspired by that woman.
I enjoyed reading about each of the women and my favorite was Hannah Arendt. I was very moved by what Arendt had to say about friendship and politics. I find her words to be as important today as they were 60 years ago, especially if we want to take steps to heal the current divisiveness that is so prevalent. I look forward to reading more about Arendt.
