"If you love historical fiction, you'll fall hard for this one. . . . Filled with food and passion, this is the perfect book to accompany a candlelit dinner." -- Bustle "The sensual adventures of food writer M.F. K. Fisher will keep the pages turning." -- Parade.com, "10 Romantic Reads for Valentine's Day" "If you occasionally partake in culinary pleasures, you'll probably enjoy digging into Ashley Warlick's novelization of beloved food writer M. F. K. Fisher's life." -- InStyle "A delight....Though The Arrangement is about marriage and friendship in the 1930 and 1940s, the novel's story of a woman and her work is timeless." -- Charleston Post & Courier "[ The Arrangement ] offers a lovely, affectionate portrait of the complicated woman who would become M.F.K. Fisher." -- Bookpage "[Warlick's] writing is smooth and elegant.

A beautifully written treatment of love in its different forms." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "Food writing fans may want to check out a novelization of the life of M.F.K.

Fisher was giving herself over to her essential appetites--for language, food and consuming passion. Ashley Warlick's prose, sharp and true as the edge of a honed blade, is a revelation. Absolutely dazzling." --Paula McLain, author of The Paris Wife "Written in language both sensuous and evocative, The Arrangement is the story of a woman who hungers to experience everything in life. A compelling story about the costs--and risks--of being true to one's self, and the courage it takes to live against convention." --Kim Edwards, author of The Memory Keeper's Daughter "I devoured and loved every word of Ashley Warlick's audacious imagining of M.F.K. Fisher's great love affair. The Arrangement is a powerful, enthralling, delectable thrill." --Kate Christensen, author of The Great Man "A sophisticated and unapologetic tale of wayward desire that I read far too long into the night, worrying about how M.F.K. Fisher could possibly solve her excruciating dilemma--a dilemma that is at once impossible, seductive, and heartbreaking." --Robin Oliveira, author of My Name is Mary Sutter "Ashley Warlick spins a beguiling tale of a complicated woman, sensuous and multi-layered as the food she chronicles. A scrumptious treat." --Janice Y. K. Lee, author of The Expatriates " The Arrangement gives vivid voice to the complicated, fascinating, rule-breaking M.F.K. Fisher.
