When I first read this as a young ‘un I was barely aware of who Michelangelo was and what he did. This book, although fiction, gave me much reason to be awed by the great Italian painter and sculptor. The passages where I. Stone describes Michelangelo working on the The Pieta or The David are moving and inspiring. Maybe Irving Stone indulges in melodrama – but a big life deserves a big story.

Jen Lin Liu discusses and signs Serve the People: A Stir-Fried Journey Through ChinaSouthern Californian native Jen Lin Liu went to China in 2000 as a Fulbright Scholar and has lived there ever since, writing as a freelance journalist and food writer for Time Out Beijing, Zagat and Frommers. In Serve The People (part travelogue, part memoir, part kitchen-confidential), Lin Liu takes us on a cook's tour through today's China as she progresses from cooking student to noodle-stall and dumpling-house apprentice to intern at a chic Shanghai restaurant. Every Literaries Who Lunch event is free and open to the public. Delicious sandwiches are available from Europane bakery for $13.95 + tax. If you would like a lunch from Europane, you must call Vroman’s customer service at (626) 449-5320, no later than September 4 to place your order.
