Description:

New in Paper! Introduction by Alice Waters. This lavishly rich and detailed chronicle of Richard Olney by Richard Olney begins in New York in 1951 where, as a struggling artist, he waited tables in Greenwich Village. It then moves on to Paris and weaves a magical description of food that becomes so real, it were as if you were there with him.

1. Heather on 11/25/2007, said:

Forget it. Mr. Olney was a memorable writer about food and wine, and several of his books are culinary classics that will be read long after this one is deservedly forgotten. Unless for some reason you are minutely interested in the amours and quarrels of Mr. Olney, his friends, and his enemies, order one of his other books instead.
