COMING TO MY SENSES THE MAKING OF A COUNTERCULTURE COOK Alice Waters with Cristina Mueller & Bob Carrau NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER PUBLISHERS WEEKLY BESTSELLER INDIEBOUND BESTSELLER “Readers will be charmed by Waters’s adoration of exquisitely prepared food. Her anecdotes and her descriptions of friends and customers bring the era and the restaurant to the mind’s eye in vibrant detail.” — starred, Publishers Weekly When Alice Waters opened her “little French restaurant” in Berkeley in 1971, no one anticipated the indelible mark it would leave on the culinary landscape — least of all Alice, who now retraces the events that led her there. Dotted with stories, recipes, photographs, and letters, Coming to My Senses is at once deeply personal and modestly understated, a quietly revealing look at one woman’s evolution from a rebellious yet impressionable follower to a respected activist who effects social and political change on a global level through the common bond of food.

THE TASTER V. S. Alexander “This is a tale of friendship, bravery, faith and forgiveness that transcends many of the books written on the subject.” — RT Book Reviews In early 1943, Magda Ritter’s parents send her to relatives in Bavaria to keep her safe from the Allied bombs strafing Berlin. Young German women are expected to do their duty — work for the Reich, or marry and produce strong, healthy children. Magda is assigned to the Berghof, Hitler’s mountain retreat. After weeks of training, she learns her assignment: she will be one of several young women tasting the Führer’s food, offering herself in sacrifice to keep him from being poisoned. Vividly written and ambitious in scope, The Taster examines the harrowing moral dilemmas of war in an emotional story filled with acts of extraordinary courage.
