For Julia Child Superfans


Unabridged production is right.  Nine compact discs, eleven hours -- this audio book is for Julia Child superfans with a lot of time on their hands and the ability to sit still (no multitasking) and listen.  Imagine a 1000 page biography being read to you.  You have to pace yourself, listen to maybe one disc or half a disc at a time.  Remember your audio mark. While Julia was a remarkable inspiring woman, there's too much information to absorb and really no compelling narrative to hold it together and make it more memorable.  Everything you wanted to know about Julia Child and then some.   Granted, Julia Child is a tough act to follow.  The good news is you can listen to this over and over again.  I received this audio production from Blogging for Books in exchange for my honest review


BONUS:  Here's a photo of Julia Child's former house in Cambridge.
