Read it years ago and occasionally phrases from this book appear in my consciousness. ( ) Found this one years ago in some second hand store and bought it for fun. I truly enjoyed it even though (as someone else noted) the mystery part wasn't very suspenseful. But the characters are fun and the story zips along at a fast pace. The movie version (with George Segal) wasn't that bad an adaptation, but the book is always better. Give it a try, yo might find it tasty! The mystery really wasn't much of one and the casual morals of the times (written in 1976) were a little startling in this post-Aids world. I enjoyed a lot of the discussions of food and there was a strong thread of humor that I liked but I have to admit to forcing myself to finish the story. Not an all time favorite, not really sorry that I read it - so a middle of the road book for me. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
In a novel of wit and haute cuisine, great chefs collectively bully greengrocers for the best produce and would rather starve than eat each other's cooking. Nan Lyons has been a food and travel writer for over twenty years, contributing to Bon Appétit, Travel + Leisure, More, Hamptons, L'official New York Newsday, as well as creating the Fielding's Agenda series and the Access Walking guides. In collaboration with her husband Ivan, she wrote the first novel with a food background, Someone is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe which was then made into a major motion picture. They went on to write four other novels as well as scores of articles on food and travel. Her newest book, Around the World in 80 Meals (Red Rock Press) was published in late 2010. Nan has most recently been made Associate Editor for "Let's Travel" a new website which features interviews as well as podcasts and articles on every aspect of travel. Her particular expertise is focused on restaurants, shopping and luxury hotels. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
