Book Reviews of The Art of Eating

Book Review: Can you eat, read, laugh and cry at the same time?
Summary: 5 Stars

I put this book on the shelf for a number of years. Maybe I subconsciously knew you have to wait to be more mature, both in life and cooking, before you can truly savor the joys of MFK Fisher's beautifully flavorful writing and recipes (The Prune Roast...mmm...). Her memories of eating fresh peas with her family in France had me choking back tears, and her recollections of meals and love will move even the most churlish among us. Please read this book, even if you have to read it in small bits and chunks. She was one of the greats!
