моника ганчева moni4kka961 — True Confessions: I totally picked up this book because I watched Julie & Julia, didn't enjoy it, and figured I'd pick up "My Life in France" as "the good parts" version. Then I promptly didn't read it for nearly a year. Go me! Other true confessions: I usually avoid autobiographies, so I'm not very used to the conventions of the genre. Also, I was not terribly familiar with Julia Child outside of the "she made cookbooks and did a cooking show, right?" bits. I found the book at turns engaging and boring. While Child lived an obviously fascinating life, and was generally an engaging writer, I found that many of the stories became very repetitive. I also found my eyes skimming over lengthy lists of dishes tried and enjoyed. While I love to eat food, I'd never heard of most of the meals she was describing so I couldn't appreciate anything she was saying about them. I did, however, find her discussion of making the book "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" utterly fascinating. I've never really thought much about how much work goes into cookbooks and the creation of recipes, let alone the difficulties in pitching something like Mastering to an audience that would be used to a different style of cooking. In addition, I found her discussions of the difficulties in translating French ideas of food into appropriate US measurements and recipes intriguing. I guess I mostly wanted more of that. Another thing I enjoyed was Child's descriptions of people that she had falling outs with. Although writing an autobiography that includes people who are dead would give one the opportunity to present others in poor light, I never felt Child did this. Her discussions of the end of her partnership with Simca were presented as being mostly a difference of opinion and a growing apart due to their different expectations and experiences, rather than casting Simca as the villain. I finished this book a few days ago, and although I enjoyed it, I wouldn't re-read it, and I'm not sure who I could recommend it to. I would strongly encourage anyone who has a weak stomach for discussion of animal parts to consider skipping this book.
