Publisher's Synopsis
With the rise of innovations in the culinary field, literature, by ricochet the contemporary comparatist, is questioning current types of cuisine, their modes of representation and the mutations taking place in this space. Based on these dynamics in this said space, Westphal's geocriticism brings a new reading of cuisine through the work Comment cuisiner son mari à l'africaine by Calixte Beyala.These innovations in the culinary field are not confined to the road, for the cuisine is highly complex, with a trangressive character in which mobility, romance, bewitchment, seduction and historicity go hand in hand.
