OverviewIn Epicurean Ecstasy, Cynthia Gallaher celebrates not only historical and modern pleasures of the kitchen and the table, but also the seasonal evolutions that take place in the cultivated fields and wild terrains, and of those who harvest these foods and bring nourishment to our homes. Warning: These poems will whet your appetite! Cynthia Gallaher weaves threads of science with seeds of the sacred. The result - a walk along a path that informs with delight. Certainly the best herbal poetry since Shakespeare. Steven Foster, senior author of National Geographic's A Desk Reference of Nature's Medicine and Peterson's A Field Guide to Medicinal Plants and Herbs Epicurean Ecstasy: More Poems About Food, Drink, Herbs and Spices is extraordinarily enjoyable; it prompted me to reconsider nourishment and what our own spiritual sustainability requires. Intelligent. Satisfying. Just beautiful. I'm awestruck by Gallaher's dedication in playing a role on insisting on good, healthy food for the community.
