>After he was offered banana bread, however, and tried it for the first time, he loved it so much that he pointed to me and said, "You can write that. I love banana bread." So I did, not because it's interesting but because he was motioning somewhat threateningly for a 72-year-old Frenchman.

Structure, Sign, and Play is difficult but short and doesn't require too much context.

If you've read Beyond the Pleasure Principle you could read some of the essays in The Post Card. Or if you've read Notes on the Mystic Writing Pad you can read Freud and the Scene of Writing.

Another path would be to read Phaedrus and then the first essay in Dissemination. If you read The Origin of the Work of Art you can read the last essay in The Truth in Painting.

No, it is a quick bread, very different from a cake, only real likeness is that they both use a batter but there are a good number of breads which use batters.

Quick breads aren’t that different from certain heavier cakes such as Hot Milk Cake iirc

>> No.19236752

Cakes are a balancing act to create a certain texture, does not matter the density, compare pound cake or your hot milk cake to white cake, all have that same texture despite very different densities. Quick breads are out of that balancing act range, you can just eyeball the ingredients and tweak your cooking method to suit how ever the batter ends up. Decrease the sugar in a cake recipe, you end up with a dry cake, decrease the sugar in a quick bread recipe and you just end up with less sweet bread.
