M. F. K. Fisher

Mary Frances Kennedy Fisher (July 3, 1908 - June 22, 1992) was a prolific and well-respected writer, writing more than 20 books during her lifetime and also publishing two volumes of journals and correspondence shortly before her death in 1992. Her first book, Serve it Forth, was published in 1937. Her books deal primarily with food, considering it from many aspects: preparation, natural history, culture, and philosophy. Fisher believed that eating well was just one of the "arts of life" and explored the art of living as a secondary theme in her writing. Her style and pacing are noted elements of her short stories and essays

    Das Teilen von Essen mit einem anderen Menschen ist eine intime Handlung, der man sich nicht leichtfertig hingeben sollte.

    condividere il cibo con un altro essere umano è un atto intimo a cui non bisogna lasciarsi andare alla leggera.

    மற்றொரு மனிதனுடன் உணவைப் பகிர்ந்துகொள்வது ஒரு நெருக்கமான செயலாகும், அதை இலகுவாக ஈடுபடுத்தக்கூடாது.

    మరొక మానవుడితో ఆహారాన్ని పంచుకోవడం అనేది ఒక సన్నిహిత చర్య, అది తేలికగా మునిగిపోకూడదు.
