Food in Literature

Economics is often presented as a dry, technical science of numbers and markets, far removed from our daily lives. In “Edible Economics”, Ha-Joon Chang turns our attention to the vibrant world of food, using culinary traditions and everyday ingredients to demystify global economic policies, history, and human behavior. What can our favorite dishes, spices, and meals teach us about capitalism, globalization, and the choices that shape our interconnected world?Book of the month: Edible Economics by Ha-Joon ChangWhen: Saturday, 21st November, 2026 at 11 a.mWhere: Atta Galatta Bookstore, Indira NagarAges: 18+Hosted by: Prachi GroverRegistration is mandatory as we have limited spots.The session is free & copies of the book are available at the store.Prachi Grover is a culinary consultant and educator and is the founder of “From Words to Wok,” a community for people who love to read and eat.
