For Los Angeles-based film critic John Baxter, that moment came when he fell in love with a French woman and impulsively moved to Paris to marry her. As a test of his love, his skeptical in-laws charged him with cooking the next Christmas banquet--for eighteen people in their ancestral country home. Baxter's memoir of his yearlong quest takes readers along his misadventures and delicious triumphs as he visits the farthest corners of France in search of the country's best recipes and ingredients. Irresistible and fascinating, \u003cem\u003eImmoveable Feast\u003c\/em\u003e is a warmhearted tale of good food, romance, family, and the Christmas spirit, Parisian style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Baxter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0061562335\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780061562334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harper Perennial\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/23\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.10h x 4.90w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2008 pg. 22\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/15\/2008 pg. 851\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/25\/2008 pg. 65\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/07\/2008 pg. 56","brand":"John Baxter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44050715541759,"sku":"9780061562334","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2ec47d2e-9c42-4b71-a0f1-0025eef21e85.jpg?v=1685008825","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/immoveable-feast-john-baxter-9780061562334","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
