About Insatiable by Shobhaa Dé
In this irreverent memoir, Shobhaa Dé looks back on the year leading up to her seventy-fifth birthday. She writes about travelling solo, sharing meals with family and friends, and the triumphs and losses that accompany ageing, alongside the vagaries of life as a writer.
Food is a connecting thread, from Jaipur lassi and kasundi to meals and conversations among politicians, artists and celebrities. Dé also reflects on the happiness and love that people hunger for, and on the delights and disappointments life can serve up. Readers interested in memoir, food writing and candid reflections on ageing will find a personal account shaped by the pleasures and social meaning of eating together.
