Nora Ephron as Food Writer
I sad to read that writer Nora Ephron died yesterday. While she is best known for her films, she was also a great food writer. Here is a great column about how she included food in her work.The writer notes: “But as was Ephron’s style, her personal stories were most often the stuff of inspiration. So it was with food, which not-so-subtly crept its way into her work. In 1975, she penned “Crazy Salad: Some Things About Women.” Her 1983 novel,Heartburn, which was adapted into a movie with Meryl Streep and Jack Nicholson three years later, features a food writer protagonist who works at a New York magazine. The novel itself is flecked with recipes.”
Here is a link to one of her books which includes her classic essay about the food establishment.
