Never Eat Your Heart Out by Judith Moore

Another brilliant memoir from the author of Fat Girl, subtle and sometimes heart-stopping: a virtuoso middle American version of Like Water for Chocolate for anyone who has ever been to a potluck supper, and some of the best new writing about how women (and men) cook, eat and feel. Here Judith Moore recollects the good, strange and terrible dramas of her life and memorably relates them to food.

Judith Moore was a writer and editor who lived in San Diego. Her earlier Never Eat Your Heart Out (also published by Profile) made the reader understand that writing about food is really writing about life.
