Описание: "A young woman`s journey from vegetarian PETA activist to blood-and-guts-eating omnivore. GROWING UP IN a household of food-loving Italian-Americans, Marissa Landrigan was always a black sheep-she barely knew how to boil water for pasta. But at college, she thought she`d found her purpose. Buoyed by animal rights activism and a feminist urge to avoid the kitchen, she transformed into a hardcore vegan activist, complete with shaved head. But Landrigan still hadn`t found her place in the world. Striving to develop her career and maintain a relationship, she criss-crossed the U.S. Along the way, she discovered that eating ethically was far from simple-and cutting out meat was not the answer. As she got closer to the source of her food, eventually even visiting a slaughterhouse and hunting elk, Landrigan realized that the most ethical way of eating was to know her food-whether meat or vegetable-and prepare it herself, on her own terms, to eat with family and friends. Part memoir and part investigative journalism, The Vegetarian`s Guide to Eating Meat is as much a search for identity as it is a fascinating treatise on food."--
