Adorned in a charming beige cloth cover, this reissue of Kate Lebo's whimsical love letter to poetry and pie-making features a new introduction by Lebo on commonplace books and six new illustrations by Jessica Bonin. This cliché-busting book explores facts--real and imagined--about pie with a practical punch.

Her essay "The Loudproof Room" appeared in New England Review and was also chosen for Best American Essays 2015.

After earning her MFA from the University of Washington in June 2012, she opened Pie School, her cliche-busting pastry academy.
