Stewed beef in red wine in To the Lighthouse, roast suckling pig in The Great Gatsby, buttered sweet potato in Gone with the Wind, and dirt in One Hundred Years of Solitude ... American writer and designer Dana Fred cooked all the delicious food that impressed her in the novel and filmed it.

Dinah Fred extracted the food described in several novels and wrote a novel "Dining Table". In the preface, she said, "Reading and eating are natural partners, and they have a lot in common. Reading and eating are both consumption, which makes people feel comfortable and relaxed, has a nourishing effect and is also a great enjoyment. They will cheer you up or make you sleepy. Big books and big meals take some time to digest. Reading great novels can bring you into another time and space environment, and food can also let you experience scenes far from the table. " Reading books about food is a double enjoyment.

Reading novels can help us understand other people's lives, including what others eat and how they feel after eating them. If you love my family and my dog, you will probably like a certain food because you like a certain book and a certain protagonist. Dana Fred said that one of his friends started drinking gin and pineapple juice after reading Lolita, because it was humbert's favorite drink. In that case, after watching Good Girl, you can find some malt extract to drink, and after watching Ulysses, you can eat a bunch of roast lamb kidneys.

Among Hemingway's many works, she chose The River with Two Hearts, in which she wrote about soybeans and pasta. Hemingway's nonfiction work "The Flowing Feast" also describes food: "I ate oysters with strong fishy smell and light metallic taste, sipped iced white wine, and only the fishy smell and juicy oyster meat were left in my mouth. When I sucked the cold juice from each shell and swallowed it with fresh wine, I no longer felt that emptiness, began to feel happy and began to make plans. "

In addition to full-page pictures, Dinah Fred also made many interesting comments on these novels and foods, such as "among the most widely eaten crops, bananas rank fourth (the top three are wheat, rice and corn), and humans eat 65.438 billion bananas every year", "Italians consume 60 pounds of spaghetti per capita every year, eating a large plate every day for six days", "According to Cornell.
