Noted blogger (www.nosheteria.com) Adrienne Kane will discuss her new book, Cooking & Screaming: Finding My Own Recipe For Recovery, on Wednesday. Sept. 9, 6-7pm at New Haven Public Library, 133 Elm St. Kane is a food writer, originally from the California Bay Area, now living in New Haven. Copies of her book will be available for sale/signing. About the book: Adrienne Kane always loved food, waiting as a child by the oven for cookies to emerge or fueling long hours of work on her senior thesis with a satisfying tagliatelle. But just two weeks before her college graduation, she suffered a hemorrhagic stroke that left her paralyzed on the right side of her body. Once a dancer and aspiring teacher, she was now dependent on her loved ones, embarrassed by her disability and facing an identity crisis. The next several years were a blur of doctors, therapists, rehabilitation and frustration--until she got back into the kitchen. In Cooking and Screaming, Kane describes how cooking becomes her escape and solace. Publishers Weekly says “Kane nicely integrates memories of her childhood, family portraits…as well as many wonderful recipes into this story of recovery.”
