Heartburn by Nora Ephron

Heartburn by Nora Ephron

The autobiographical novel by Nora Ephron, Oscar-nominated screenwriter (When Harry Met Sally) and successful director (Sleepless in Seattle), very funny and yet sad book about love and loss.

Funny and touching.. proof that writing well is the best revenge * CHICAGO TRIBUNE *
I am not a great reader of comic novels, but Ephron's hilarious, recipe-strewn, semi-autobiographical account of a heavily pregnant woman whose husband has left her for a woman with a 'neck as long as an arm' is a treat. A perfect example of Ephron's gift for turning tragedy into comedy, Heartburn is evidence that revenge is indeed a dish best served cold -- Paula Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train
I have bought more copies of this book to five to people, in a frenzy of enthusiasm, than any other...HEARTBURN is the perfect, bittersweet, sobbingly funny, all-too-true confessional novel. There is not a wrong word - about food, marriage, life, love, l * Nigella Lawson *
[Ephron] chatters up a storm, always on the verge of wisecracking up * GUARDIAN *

Nora Ephron has received Academy Award nominations for Best Original Screenplay for When Harry Met Sally, Silkwood, and Sleepless in Seattle, which she also directed. She lives in New York City with her husband, writer Nicholas Pileggi.
