Between Meals - Liebling A. J. - książka
Producent: Penguin Books
During a year of studying in Paris in 1927, Liebling formed a bond with Yves Mirande, described as 'one of the last notable gastronomes of France'. This marked the start of a delightful journey into the sophisticated world of cuisine. "Between Meals" vividly explores the highs and lows of a life immersed in culinary pleasures, from the unfortunate experience of drinking bad rosé ('a pinkish cross resembling a mix of diet soda and vinegar') to the indulgence of lobster a l'Américaine ('I've never delved into the secrets of its creation, much like admiring a fine painting without questioning the artist's palette'). The narrative also recounts a notable visit to a Swiss weight-loss spa, featuring a masseur named Sprudli. With its sharp humor, occasional grumpiness and spirited charm, "Between Meals" captivates with the sensory richness reminiscent of a gourmet meal and the lively wit that enlivens any dinner conversation. It's an ode to the pleasures of food, fine wine, and the city of Paris, beautifully introduced by James Salter.
