Worthington's use of satire and humor adds a light-hearted touch to the discussions of serious themes, making the book both entertaining and thought-provoking. Elizabeth Strong Worthington, a contemporary of notable feminist writers, infuses 'How to Cook Husbands' with her sharp wit and keen observations about the complexities of marriage and gender dynamics. As a writer who challenged traditional notions of womanhood and domesticity, Worthington's choice to use a cookbook format for her social commentary is both clever and subversive.
