Books by Julia Child

My Life in France
(with Alex Prud'homme)
A by-word in America in the 50s and 60s for superb but accessible French cooking - Child rose to public attention again with the blog and book on which the film 'Julie & Julia' is based. She was provoked into writing this memoir, published posthumously. A sophisticated lady, witty, caustic, clever and observant, she never fails to poke fun at herself, the French, the Americans and life in general. Delicious recipes as well. Not to miss.
(Kathie Somerwil Ayrton - bwl 55 Winter 2010)
