The anthology was inspired by the observed relative absence of breakfast in literature, first pointed out by a character in a novel--not complaining, mind you, just mentioning. Scholars of English literature explore food culture during the two centuries from such perspectives as badly-boiled potatoes and other crises, fetishism and signification in Our Mutual Friend, national identity and Victorian Christmas foods, and the Queen's coffee and Casanova's chocolate for breakfast in France.
