Kom zaterdag 20 juni om 14.00 uur naar Boekhandel Scheltema voor een lezing van Paul van Ravestein en Monique Mulder over hun boek The Pickled City.
An illustrated history of the ever-popular New York pickle told with amazing archival images and ephemera from the New York Historical and beyond.
The Pickled City takes a glorious deep dive into the history of the iconic brined cucumber by tracing the pickle’s journey from ancient Mesopotamia to Eastern Europe to Manhattan’s Lower East Side, unearthing a hidden world of family stories and economic contributions that helped shape New York’s cultural, culinary, and literal foundations.
With a foreword by pickle pioneer Sandor Katz and an astonishing wealth of photographs, historical images, documents, illustrations, advertisements, and more!
