Cooked up : food fiction from around the world

Food can bring together families, communities and cultures.

It is the essence of life and yet our relationships with one another can be most fraught at the dinner table.

This perpetually fascinating subject has inspired a unique collection of short fiction - including flash fiction, essay and short stories and a stoku (combination of story and haiku).

It features international literary figures such as Ben Okri, Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni, and Mukoma We Ngugi and emerging writers such as Krys Lee, Nikesh Shukla, Pippa Goldschmidt and Elaine Chiew.
