“His memoir, fast paced and not particularly well written, but interesting enough.
It shows just how important Michelin stars are to the chefs and restaurant world.
Read it in a day or two.

“Pulitzer Prize winning author. Turkish translation and set in modern day times.
This novel needs to be read seriously, not in bite sized chunks like I was trying to do.
I gave up on page 100, the pages just weren’t turning for me.
No doubt this chap can write though

“No 1 best seller which I struggled to stay with.
Jung and Freud play their part whilst on lecture tour in New York 1910. Believed to be based on a true story.
Took me ages to read it which is a sure sign I wasn’t enjoying it…and because of this I didn’t really follow the plot.

Score 5/10
