Book Reviews of My Year of Meats
Book Review: "Surprising and distressing things"
Summary: 4 Stars
Ruth Ozeki's "My Year of Meats" is an original, amusing, fun, fascinating, at times didactic, and enjoyable book. The American documentary filmmaker Jane Takagi-Little is faced with a personal dilemma: her job directing a Japanese TV show promoting meat and 'American-values' and her own personal values, which she discovers are at odds with the show. An interesting idea, nicely written. A good read.
