Bourdain: In Stories
by Laurie Woolever
4 Stars = It definitely held my interest.
If you are a fan of Tony, you'll probably like this book. Dozens of people talk about what Tony meant to them. If you're not a fan, it may not be interesting, as it is a 'we loved you, Tony, flaws and all' book.
When I read [b:Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly, Insider's Edition|15817804|Kitchen Confidential Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly, Insider's Edition|Anthony Bourdain|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1355032990l/15817804._SY75_.jpg|4219] I enjoyed Tony's writing, because it struck a familiar chord, since I spent quite a lot of years in the restaurant business, in many different roles. It was great to see one-of-us come up from being a dishwasher, and blast into celebrity status. Tony paid his dues in the culinary world.
No one will ever know why he took his own life. We all have our own theories. Unfortunately, I have an insider's view of suicide, too, and it just breaks my heart that this, seemingly, kind and good-hearted man felt himself backed into the fatal corner. I still miss him.
