Item description from seller

First Edition. First Edition. Venus in the Kitchen, or Love’s Cookery Book is a famously eccentric and tongue-in-cheek collection of recipes by Norman Douglas, originally published under the pseudonym Pilaff Bey. The book combines recipes with witty observations and playful reflections on food, love and sensuality, ranging from unusual dishes to aphrodisiac ingredients and culinary curiosities. Douglas’s erudition and mischievous humour make it as entertaining to read as it is unconventional as a cookbook. A cult classic of food writing, particularly appealing to collectors of unusual and literary cookbooks. First Edition.
