About the book

Toklas Cookbook is an unusual blend of memoir, travel, literary history and recipes by Alice B. Toklas, longtime companion of Gertrude Stein. Alongside recipes drawn from France and elsewhere, Toklas recalls meals, friends, artists and writers from the extraordinary cultural circle she and Stein inhabited. The result is far more than a cookbook: it is a vivid personal record of food, friendship and artistic life in twentieth-century Europe.
