bite by bite book cover featuring a colorful collection of food items [ https://sclibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S146C2483437 ]Join us for a book club-style discussion of Santa Clara's Big Read for 2025-2026: "Bite by Bite [ https://sclibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S146C2483437 ] "by Aimee Nezhukumatathil. Registration is not required for this event. Please email librarians@santaclaraca.gov with any questions.

*About the book: *In "Bite by Bite", poet and essayist Aimee Nezhukumatathil explores the way food and drink evoke our associations and remembrances—a subtext or layering, a flavor tinged with joy, shame, exuberance, grief, desire, or nostalgia. Nezhukumatathil restores our astonishment and wonder about food through her encounters with a range of foods and food traditions. From shave ice to lumpia, mangoes to pecans, rambutan to vanilla, she investigates how food marks our experiences and identities and explores the boundaries between heritage and memory. "Bite by Bite" offers a rich and textured kaleidoscope of vignettes and visions into the world of food and nature, drawn together by intimate and humorous personal reflections, with Fumi Nakamura's gorgeous imagery and illustration.
