How an Author Drinks is a bold tribute to the spirits that fueled the literary canon-and the modern rituals that keep storytelling alive today.
Blending historical homage with contemporary invention, Keven D. Stehl crafts a collection of cocktails inspired by legendary writers and the drinks that defined them. From absinthe-soaked evenings with Wilde to slow sips of Cognac in Baldwin's shadow, each chapter offers a drink, a story, and a moment of reflection on the habits, myths, and humanity behind the craft.Part cocktail book, part literary meditation, How an Author Drinks is a celebration of creativity, indulgence, and the curious alchemy between art and alcohol.
Whether you're a bartender, a writer, or a reader with a taste for the romantic and the ruinous-this book invites you to drink deeply.Also from
Stehl, Keven D.
