Jeder könnte ein Buch über Essen schreiben, das genauso einzigartig wäre wie sein Fingerabdruck, behauptet Alina Bronsky, und schreibt nun ihres: eine höchst subjektive Erzählung über ihre persönliche Beziehung zu Porridge, Schokolade, Butterbrot, Borschtsch oder der Vogelmilchtorte. Denn für sie sind diese Speisen nicht einfach nur Nahrung, sondern ein Mittel der Fürsorge, Emanzipation, emotionalen Erpressung, das mal nach Heimat schmeckt, mal nach Liebe, Hemmungslosigkeit oder Askese.

Long based in Chicago, Iliana and her new wife, Anna, decided to create a culinary destination, the Milkweed Inn, located in Michigan’s remote Upper Peninsula, where much of the food served to their guests would be foraged by Regan herself in the surrounding forest and nearby river. Part fresh challenge, part escape, Regan’s move to the forest was also a return to her rural roots, in an effort to deepen the intimate connection to nature and the land that she had long expressed as a chef, but experienced most intensely growing up.

Burn the Place is a galvanizing culinary memoir that chronicles Iliana Regan's journey from foraging on the family farm to opening her Michelin-starred restaurant. Her story is alive with startling imagery, raw like that first bite of wild onion, and told with uncommon emotional power. Regan grew up the youngest of four headstrong girls on a small farm in Indiana. Regan often felt that she "wasn't made for this world." She was a little girl who longed to be a boy, gay in an intolerant community, an alcoholic before she turned 20, a woman in an industry dominated by men.

Between lively narrative and detailed commentary on Julia's favorite kitchen gadgets, Julia Child's Kitchen illuminates the stories behind the room's design, use, significance, and legacy, showing how deeply Julia Child continues to influence food today.
