Born Round by Frank Bruni

Born Round by Frank Bruni

The New York Times restaurant critic's heartbreaking and hilarious account of how he learned to love food just enough

Frank Bruni was born round. Round as in stout, chubby, and always hungry. His relationship with eating was difficult and his struggle with it began early. When named the restaurant critic for The New York Times in 2004, he knew he would be performing one of the most watched tasks in the epicurean universe. And with food his friend and enemy both, his jitters focused primarily on whether he'd finally made some sense of that relationship. A captivating story of his unpredictable journalistic odyssey as well as his lifelong love-hate affair with food, Born Round will speak to everyone who's ever had to rein in an appetite to avoid letting out a waistband.

In April 2004, The New York Times named Frank Bruni as its food reviewer. He was previously the Rome bureau chief and a White House correspondent for the publication. In 2002, he published a book about George W. Bush. Bush's book, Ambling into History, was a best seller in the New York Times. He currently resides in New York City.
