Nearing thirty and trapped in a dead-end secretarial job, Julie Powell resolved 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' liver and aspic, but a new life—lived with gusto.
