Acerca de esta escucha
A lovely discussion between Judith Jones and Alex Prud'homme about their new books, The Tenth Muse: My Life in Food and My Life in France (co-authored by Prud'homme with Julia Child).
As a young editor at Knopf, Jones edited Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking, and a relationship blossomed between her and Child. Since then, Jones has worked with a glorious lineup of cookbook writers, from Madhur Jaffrey to Marion Cunningham, and has become an editorial legend.
She and Prud'homme discuss Child's move to France, where she found her calling to be a chef; the process of writing a cookbook; and Prud'homme's collaboration with Child. Many colorful and delicious anecdotes are related.
The evening begins with Jones reading an excerpt from her memoir, followed by Prud'homme reading a piece from Child's memoir.
This special event was recorded live as part of the Thalia Book Club series as Peter Norton Symphony Space in New York City.

Steve Hoffman is a perfectly comfortable middle-aged Minnesotan man who has always been desperately, pretentiously in love with France, more specifically with the idea of France. To follow that love, he and his family move, nearly at random, to the small, rural, scratchy-hot village of Autignac in the south of the country, and he immediately thinks he’s made a terrible mistake.

This memoir is laced with wonderful stories about the French character, particularly in the world of food, and the way of life that Julia Child embraced so wholeheartedly. Above all, she reveals the kind of spirit and determination, the sheer love of cooking, and the drive to share that with her fellow Americans that made her the extraordinary success she became.

Historia5 out of 5 stars 10
Chicken may not be an extravagant ingredient, but for master chef Jacques Pépin, it is the one he turns to most frequently—to cook and to paint. In this beautifully illustrated book, Jacques reminisces on his life through the lens of the humble bird, from his childhood in rural France, where he chased chickens and watched as his maman turned them into her poulet à la crème, to his demanding apprenticeship and long, illustrious career.

Provence, 1970 is about a singular historic moment. In the winter of that year, more or less coincidentally, the iconic culinary figures James Beard, M.F.K. Fisher, Julia Child, Richard Olney, Simone Beck, and Judith Jones found themselves together in the South of France. They cooked and ate, talked and argued, about the future of food in America, the meaning of taste, and the limits of snobbery.

Reseñas editoriales
This unique episode of Symphony Space’s Thalia Book Club series will appeal to literary buffs and gourmands alike, as Judith Jones, author of The Tenth Muse: My Life in Food, and Alex Prud’homme, co-author (with beloved cooking personality Julia Child) of My Life in France, read excerpts of their own work and engage in a dialogue about their shared passion for food and food writing, as well as recounting anecdotes about mutual friend Julia Child, whose marked evidence on both their lives and work is clear.
Listening to Jones and Prud’homme talk is a little like gathering around the dinner table, and the stories they tell are intimate and occasionally uproarious. The dynamic between these two skilled food writers is not to be missed!
