Save Me the Plums

Reichl is well known and beloved food writer for good reason. This memoir of her time at Gourmet magazine is one of her best. Combining the joy of food, the fear of taking on a new and largely unknown career challenge and the nostalgia for those of us who loved Gourmet until its demise a look back at a special time in its history, the excellent narration by the author fully evokes the curiosity and joy of unique time.
