MASTERING THE ART OF FRENCH EATING: LESSONS IN FOOD AND LOVE FROM A YEAR IN PARIS

Book ID/图书代码： 03540012B56916

English Summary/英文概要： Mastering the Art of French Eating reflects Ann Mah’s quest through France to discover the country’s best known regional dishes. Each chapter will focus on the history of a different place and its signature dish — for example, crêpes from Brittany, choucroute from Alsace, or boeuf Bourguignon from Burgundy.

Tying the book together will be Ann’s experiences as a diplomat’s wife living in France. It’s a story about forging an identity through food. About the solitary year the author spent in Paris while her husband was in Iraq. About striving to eat the French way — not just to fuel the body, but also to nourish the soul. Above all, it’s the story of a young woman learning to build a balanced life of love and work — dish by dish.
