Book Summary
Julie & Julia, the bestselling memoir that's "irresistible....A kind of Bridget Jones meets The French Chef" (Philadelphia Inquirer), is now a major motion picture.
Julie Powell, nearing thirty and trapped in a dead- end secretarial job, resolves to reclaim her life by cooking in the span of a single year, every one of the 524 recipes in Julia Child's legendary Mastering the Art of French Cooking.
Her unexpected reward: not just a newfound respect for calves' livers and aspic, but a new life-lived with gusto.
The film is written and directed by Nora Ephron and stars Amy Adams as Julie and Meryl Streep as Julia.
