The perfect gift—in any amount—with that personal touch of classic old world charm.
Punk music, punk politics, and a hunger for the more egalitarian, collaborative work environment of a worker-owned cooperative can lead one to many places—including the world of cheese. Gordon Edgar, cheesemonger for the San Francisco Rainbow Grocery Cooperative and board member of the California Artisan Cheese Guild, is here this weekend as a participant in Seattle's annual Cheese Festival. And he is here at Elliott Bay for a special presentation to discuss his book, Cheesemonger: A Life on the Wedge (Chelsea Green). Part-memoir, part-primer on cheese (varieties, production, politics, enjoyment), Cheesemonger is a hip introduction to an extraordinary world. "Smart, compassionate and fun to read ... Who would expect the memoir of a cheese man to be so fascinating, playful and refreshing?" - Deborah Madison.
