I think the only "agenda" item I got from this book was "stop feeding people rubbish, and get back to providing nutritious food that is affordable for everyone" and it's a point I find impossible to disagree with. I simply loved that she, unlike many other authors of autobiography - as you say -, actually seemed to take a step back to reflect. It's a book of contemplation.
I'm sure there is plenty of self-production in this as well, but the overall tone is self-reflection.
I loved it.
I agree that there's self-production in it -- I don't think a memoirist can look back on their life and NOT engage in it on some level, if only to provide some coherence to it -- but hers is very subtle.
