Synopsis:

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
"The kind of book you read in one sitting." -USA Today
The good, the bad, and the ugly, served up Bourdain-style-with a new edition and foreword by Bill Buford coming in August 2026.

Bestselling chef and Parts Unknown host Anthony Bourdain has never been one to pull punches. In The Nasty Bits, he serves up a well-seasoned hellbroth of candid, often outrageous stories from his worldwide misadventures. Whether scrounging for eel in the backstreets of Hanoi, revealing what you didn't want to know about the more unglamorous aspects of making television, calling for the head of raw food activist Woody Harrelson, or confessing to lobster-killing guilt, Bourdain is as entertaining as ever.

Bringing together the best of his previously uncollected nonfiction-and including new, never-before-published material-The Nasty Bits is a rude, funny, brutal and passionate stew for fans and the uninitiated alike.

About the Author: Anthony Bourdain was the New York Times-bestselling author of Kitchen Confidential, Medium Raw, A Cook's Tour, Typhoid Mary and The Nasty Bits, the cookbooks Appetites and Anthony Bourdain's Les Halles Cookbook, and the novels Bone in the Throat and Gone Bamboo. He also co-authored the graphic novel Get Jiro! with Joel Rose. His writing appeared in the New York Times and New Yorker. He was the host of the popular television shows No Reservations, Parts Unknown, A Cook's Tour and The Layover. Bourdain died in June 2018.
