[Sule Tarakcioglu]

From: "Waxman, Barbara" <waxmanb@uncw.edu>


The food memoir is an increasingly popular subgenre of autobiography, a 
form of
autobiography that often presents what Paul John Eakin calls the "relational
life story,"  a narrative connecting one person's story of 
self-development to
parents, siblings, spouses, or "proximate others." Food memoirs intertwine
narratives of family life, travel, and cross-cultural experiences with 
recipes
and the author's representation of an evolving self. Essays of 7 to 8 
pages or
250-word abstracts are welcome. Please send these to waxmanb@uncw.edu 
by April
1, 2006.
