About this title: Food writer M. F. K. Fisher's letters, from her life as a young married woman in France to shortly before her death at the age of 84. Fisher's letters are an intriguing guide to her complex and witty personality, but the quality of the writing doesn't compare to her autobiographical works. However, the letters are a valuable adjunct, and they do shed light on a most unusual life. A New York Times Notable Book for 1998.
