FOOD OBSESSION


Julie & Julia
by Julie Powell


Julie was a fun writer. She has a dry sense of humor and an obsessive passion to her commitments. It is certainly not just a food novel of eating. It is her whole life for a year; her trials and tribulations with her goal to finish cooking and baking all those recipes. I do not know how she did it, but she was never bored. I enjoyed her contagious enthusiasm and appreciated the anxiety she had with her disappointments. It made me feel normal in my complex emotional roller coaster in relating with her, in these complex lives we live.
