Cara Nicoletti is a butcher, former pastry chef, and writer living in Brooklyn, New York. For her some of the most romantic, most poignant scenes in literature are scenes of cooking and eating, evidenced by her first book, Voracious: A Hungry Reader Cooks Her Way Through Great Books, in which she charmingly chronicles how food and literature dovetail throughout her life.
