Relish: My Life in the Kitchen

"Lucy Knisley's delightful drawings don't just tell great stories, they're a crystal-clear how-to guide to everything worth doing in the kitchen. Step aside, "Joy of Cooking"."

--Alison Bechdel, author of "Fun Home"""

"Lucy Knisley is bringing comics into the kitchen."

--"USA Today"

"Knisley's candid storytelling, deadpan humor, and clear-line storytelling make the book entirely accessible. . . . like a giant bowl of spaghetti carbonara or a tower of huevos rancheros (recipes included) this is a book that teenagers and parents will savor in equal measure."

--"PW" Starred Review

"I plan on buying this book for every foodie I know."

--"Wired"

Just about everything in this rambling memoir is handled with good cheer, which hints at the positive energy and personal fulfillment Knisley has wrought from her young life in food."

-- "Booklist"

"A grand appreciation for the sheer joy of sharing a meal (and recipe)."

--"Bookslut"

"You're going to savor every page of this yummy graphic memoir."

--"Reading Rants"

Lucy Knisley was born in New York City, raised in Rhinebeck, NY, and educated in Chicago. She has come home to roost in a tiny apartment in Manhattan, where she can be closer to her mom's cooking. Her comics about life, food, travel and her adventures have gained her a devoted audience on the Internet, and she is now doing food comics for the magazine "Saveur," who just sent her to Africa. Lucy's first book, "French Milk," is a travelogue about a trip to Paris. "Relish "is her most recent work.
