Title: Garlic and Sapphires
Author: Ruth Reichl
Genre: Biography
Age Group: Adult
Contents: 12 regular print copies + 1 resource notebook
When she took the job as food critic for the New York Times, Reichl didn't know she'd become the most hated and feared woman in the city. Her picture was posted in every kitchen, and wait staff closely examined each customer to make sure she wasn't the dreaded critic. So Reichl began going undercover as a Midwestern schoolteacher, a funky redhead, and her own mother, among other disguises. Reichl also opened the paper's coverage to the entire world of cuisine, introducing New Yorkers to the best of the food in their city. Sparkling and funny atmosphere, along with mouthwatering writing about the food she encountered, makes this a light fun read.
