Looking for some contemporary fiction in the vein of Dickens, Nabokov, Irving and Toole? Then check this out. The man Jack (not a bad name as four letter words go) denizen of the Baghdad by the Bay, masseuse, healer, and bungling shaman wannabe is about to make a big decision.

Stephen Henderson describes a fascinating series of culinary adventures, during which he spent time laboring alongside many gastrophilanthropists, or chefs who make feeding the needy their form of charity. Part memoir, and part how-to guide, Henderson's field reports from across the globe show how much joy a good meal will give to a homeless and hungry person.
