Serve It Forth
By M.F.K. Fisher, Bryan Washington (Introduction by)
2026 • Picador
A witty, idiosyncratic guided tour through culinaria past and present by the inimitable M.F.K. Fisher.
In Serve It Forth, her first book, M.F.K. Fisher is already in the full bloom of her powers. She travels the byways and tables of history, laying bare with her unique literary vision the peculiarities, profundities, and absurdities of the eating (and thinking) life. She makes an equal feast of the sybaritic Roman diet and its decadent excesses as she does of the slow progress of the snail as it makes its arduous way from garden to escargot. Serve It Forth is an occasion for celebrating food in all its many hues and guises, guided by one of our greatest modern food writers and philosophers.
