Between Meals Av A. J. Liebling

<p>While on a year of study in Paris in 1927, Liebling acquired the friendship and tutelage of Yves Mirande, ''one of the last great gastronomes of France'', beginning a joyous apprenticeship in the fine art of eating. Told with gluttonous joie de vivre, <i>Between Meals</i> expounds on the delights and pitfalls of a life dedicated to food, from bad ros¿''a pinkish cross between No-Cal and vinegar'') to lobster <i>a l''Am¿caine </i>(''I have never personally inquired into the mysteries of its fabrication; I am content to love a masterpiece of painting without asking how the artist mixed his colours''), to a memorable stay at a Swiss slimming clinic with a masseur named Sprudli. Witty, grouchy and full of gusto, <i>Between Meals </i>has the exquisite sensuality of a Michelin-starred meal and the delicious, catty wit of the perfect dinner guest. It is a love song to food, wine and Paris.<br><br>With an introduction by James Salter.</p>
