Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

The popular blogger and best-selling author describes how in the wake of a strain on her marriage she left town to immerse herself in the art of butchery, the camaraderie and laborious training she received at a butcher shop, and her journeys throughout the world in search of the butchery practices of other cultures.


Review:

"There is a great book to be written about butchers and butchery....This is not that book, though it does contain many insights into how interesting butchery can be--this mysterious world of connective tissue and very large knives....Powell writes well about the sensual properties of meat...."

Bee Wilson, Times Literary Supplement, 10/16/2009

Julie Powell thought cooking her way through Julia Child's "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" was the craziest thing she'd ever do--until she embarked on the voyage recounted in her new memoir, CLEAVING. Her marriage challenged by an insane, irresistible love affair, Julie decides to leave town and immerse herself in a new obsession: butchery. She finds her way to Fleischer's, a butcher shop where she buries herself in the details of food. She learns how to break down a side of beef and French a rack of ribs--tough, physical work that only sometimes distracts her from thoughts of afternoon trysts. The camaraderie at Fleischer's leads Julie to search out fellow butchers around the world--from South America to Europe to Africa. At the end of her odyssey, she has learned a new art and perhaps even mastered her unruly heart. Bookseller Inventory # LIB9780316003360
