The Perfectionist by Rudolph Chelminski
On the evening of February 24 2003, an astounding story broke into French radio and TV news bulletins, then raced around the world: Bernard Loiseau, France's most famous chef, had committed suicide. More than a surprise, it was simply unbelievable, because he was a man who had everything: a super luxurious hotel and restaurant holding three stars, the highest rating of the Michelin guide; media star status at home and an enviable reputation worldwide for the daring cuisine des essences he had invented; a great staff, entirely devoted to his cause; an attractive loyal wife and three beautiful young children. He was on top of the world, and yet he chose to end it all or was it was because he was on top of the world? Enigma.
Rudolph Chelminski is an American writer and veteran foreign correspondent and lives in Paris. His articles have appeared in most major American magazines, and he is the author of five books, including The French At Table and the French bestseller Prisonier de Mao.
