In the spirit of Judy Chicago's 1979 installation, The Dinner Party, the author imagines her own meal with nine women artists -- with each getting a chapter-length biography that's loaded with insights into their eating and creative habits. This literary feast will make readers feel like they're pulling up a seat at the table. - Publishers Weekly
