1 Recipe for Success : The Rise, Fall and Rise Again of Cookbooks Kate Gibbs , 2022 single work criticism
— Appears in: Griffith Review , no. 78 2022; (p. 9-16)
'A NOVEL I once read described a protagonist as the sort of woman who reads a cookbook in bed. I glance at my bedside and ponder the hardcovers sitting there. Hetty McKinnon. Anna Jones. Alison Roman. Are these not the great writers of our time? Steinbeck lies under a glass of water – the essential, reliable storyteller and coaster. But for practical, everyday beauty, for hope, for love, for mind-changing advice, it was always cookbooks.'  (Publication summary)
