Race and Repast Foodscapes in Twentieth-Century Southern Literature

"Race and Repast makes a much-needed bridge between literary studies and food studies. Through the analysis of literary representations of spaces and relationships in the segregated South, Urszula Niewiadomska-Flis argues that food spaces are contact zones where categories of race are challenged and meanings are negotiated, making them important settings for social and cultural rituals, performances, and dramas." -Carrie Helms Tippen, author of Inventing Authenticity: How Cookbook Writers Redefine Southern Identity
