Jim Harrison’s legendary gourmandise is on full display in A Really Big Lunch. From the titular New Yorker piece about a French lunch that went to thirty-seven courses to pieces from Brick, Playboy, Kermit Lynch’s newsletter, and others, from the relationship between hunter and prey to the obscure language of wine reviews, A Really Big Lunch is shot through with Harrison’s pointed aperçus and keen delight in the pleasures of the senses. And between the lines, the pieces give glimpses of Harrison’s life over the last three decades. A Really Big Lunch is a literary delight that will satisfy every appetite.

A must for food lovers
-
Mr. Harrison’s tagline “Meditations on Food and Life from the Roving Gourmand” sets one’s expectation for both a food adventure and some tidbits of wisdom about living life to its fullest. Compiled of multiple food essays, anyone who likes food, and especially the unusual, will find the listening experience very rewarding. Couple that together with his musings on a colorful and fulfilling life as a writer of his own life where he shares his sorrows, love, lust, aging and gluttony. Enjoy, for here is a book that is full of appetizing dishes and good conversation to go along with it. Joe Barrett narrates and gives us his usual professional reading.
