Come join some of the most famous twentieth-century artistic luminaries for dinner. In Found Meals of the Lost Generation Suzanne Rodriguez-Hunter takes you through an edible time machine back to the "moveable feast" that Hemingway called 1920's Paris. Transform your living room into Gertrude Stein's famous (or infamous)tea salon, share a cold supper with James Joyce and Sylvia Beach, dine with Cole Porter at the famous cabaret Bricktop's or with Kiki and Man Ray in their intimate flat. Found Meals of the Lost Generation will help you recreate these and many other occasions as it traces the sumptuous feasts and daring adventures of the coterie of artists and writers who visited Paris during this exhilarating decade of creativity.
