Varying in size from as small as a grape to as large as a dinner plate, the humble oyster has played an outsized role in the building of empires and the discovery of new lands. Consumed by both rich and poor, the oyster has inspired writers, poets, painters, and even lovers (Casanova was said to have started each day with a breakfast of fifty oysters.) Carolyn Tillie shucks open the culinary, artistic, sexual, historical, and scientific history of this humble bivalve.
