Absurdistan: A Novel	A great food novel that could have been taken from the news pages the last seven years.
	Lush Life: A Novel	No one creates characters through dialogue as well as he does. And you'll never perceive Schiller's the same way.
	Straight Man: A Novel	Funny as hell but surprisingly moving, too. Like all his books.
	The Food Life: Inside the World of Food with the Grocer Extraordinaire at Fairway	Grocer with a passport and a vocabulary, not a thesaurus.
	The Frog Commissary Cookbook	Ideas? They have a billion. All great.
