- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This was not really a book. It was a podcast of a book tour, I think, with Julia Child’s longtime editor and her nephew, both of whom have had a great deal to do with publishing Julia’s books, collecting her stories as well as anecdotes about Julia, and correcting the record- for example, she never actually dropped a chicken!
The Q&A was delightful, as new stories were told about the ever-quirky and amazingly generous-hearted woman who
brought French cooking to America.
