Read by Meryl Streep.
Seven months into her pregnancy, Rachel Samstat discovers that her husband, Mark, is in love with another woman. The fact that the other woman has a neck as long as an arm and a nose as long as a thumb is no consolation. Food sometimes is, though, since Rachel writes cookbooks for a living. And in between trying to win Mark back and loudly wishing him dead, Ephron's irrepressible heroine offers some of her favorite recipes.
COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Ephron + Streep = perfection submitted by A2AE on July 31, 2022, 10:02am This has popped up on a bunch of books women should read lists, so I gave it a try. I loved this page-turner, a thinly disguised tale of the breakup of her real marriage to Carl Bernstein after he cheated on her while pregnant with their second child was great. And what makes it even better is that Meryl Streep performs this, so you'll now need to watch her in the movie version of this book.
