Get Thee to a Bakery : Essays Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Get Thee to a Bakery is a collection of short, tart essays that explore both humorous and harrowing aspects of growing older and making sense of social, technological, and environmental change.

Topics range from earworms and industrial eggs to peaches and personal data, from bug die-offs to algae blooms and global warming, and from beards and yoga to the irrepressible American smile. Many of these essays make discursive moves into science and literature, framing issues and conflicts that resonate in contemporary American life.

With a conversational style, distinctive voice, and great comic timing, Bailey entertains and surprises.
