Shouldn't be audio
Revisado: 10-08-04
This book simply doesn't work, IMHO, as an audio book. It's a collection of writings about food: excerpts from books, letters, articles, restaurant reviews, song lyrics, etc. It's way too random to work as a listen, this would be great (dead tree version) as a bathroom book, or kept in the car for short attention span reading spells: on line at the bank, waiting for a train to pass, etc. I listened thru about the first 4 hours (it does have *some* interesting stuff in it), and was actually looking forward to it being done in one more hour. That's when I realized that the five hour file in my Otis was only part one of the book! There was *another* five hours after I finished the first one. I stopped listening.
