About this course

What does it mean to hunger for a certain food? And how does hunger gesture beyond, to the rituals, places, and people connected to these foods? In this workshop, we will examine these intersections and also consider the local food landscape of Boston with its ever-evolving culinary traditions that have been shaped by people from around the world. How do these stories intersect with our own hunger and longing? Assignments will include personal narratives, braided essays, and profiles of cooks and the places and foods connected to them. A field trip to a local farmers market, artisan bakery, or farm will be a class activity. We will sample some locally produced foods and evoke the sensory experience of eating through writing. All writers welcome!
