Muze Annotation: Written with her grandnephew, Julia Child’s infectiously readable memoir uses years of letters to create a wonderful narrative both about her love affair with the food and culture of France, and as homage to the warm, loving relationship with her husband, Paul. Beginning with the awakening of her taste buds during a flavorful meal of oysters and deceptively simple Dover sole in butter en route to Paris, the story follows Julia Child’s six-year stint in France, the process of writing MASTERING THE ART OF FRENCH COOKING, and her fame as a television chef. Lessons at the Cordon Bleu, meals all over France, and the Childs’ globe-trotting lifestyle are woven in with care, showcasing Julia Child’s intense enjoyment of everything life had to offer. With Paul Child's B&W photographs. A 2006 Publishers Weekly Book of the Year.
