Culinary Fictions by Anita Mannur

An exploration of how and why food matters in the culture and literature of the South Asian diaspora
"Mannur skillfully deploys nuanced readings of culinary cultural strategies embedded in and performed by a wide range of South Asian diasporic textsWhile numerous fields including queer, feminist, critical race, and diasporic studies will be enriched by this astute book, with her attention to the cultural politics of consumption, production, and difference, Mannur's greatest impact will be on Asian American Studies and its commitment to re-imaginings of race, gender, and citizenship."-Jigna Desai, University of Minnesota, and author of Beyond Bollywood

Anita Mannur is Assistant Professor of English and Asian/Asian American Studies at Miami University of Ohio.
