Book Discussion
Garlic and Saphires: the Secret Life of a Critic in Disguise
By Reichl, Ruth
Join us on July 29th, Thursday, at 6:30 pm
GARLIC AND SAPPHIRES is Ruth Reichl's riotous account of the many disguises she employs to dine anonymously. As Ruth adopts the various disguises, she finds herself changed not just superficially, but in character as well. She gives a remarkable account of how one's outer appearance can very much influence one's inner character, expectations, and appetites.
