Excerpt from The Women of the Gael Gae renders justice - even romantic justice - to the woman hood of the country whose representations are Dark Rosaleen, and Kathleen ni Houlihan, and The Poor Old Woman. Its writer has made of it a long roll of honor, a roll of women with beautiful names who have been remembered for their piety, their learning, and their patriotism: It is distinctly a Legend of Good Women. Little is said of another type of woman that has been celebrated from far-of times in Ireland - the woman whose virtue was in her overflowing energy, the woman whose type is Queen Maeve, bearer of warrior children, herself a warrior and a great lover. And naturally in a Legend of Good Women nothing would be said of that woman of the o'briens who, on coming back to her castle, finds the women lamenting for her husband slain in battle, and says Dead men are no use to us here, and rides back to the battle-line, and there and then marries the general of the opposing army. Little is said of the women of that type: The Women of the Gael who are spoken of have their names on the roll for being guardians of the national virtue and custodians of the Gaelic civilization.

Acclaimed restaurant critic Gael Greene dishes up a delectable memoir-complete with her favorite recipes-from a lifelong love affair with food, men, and wine. In 1968, Gael Greene became the restaurant critic of the fledgling New York magazine. Before taking the job, she'd never written a restaurant review in her life. But she was a passionate foodie, and dining in the world's great restaurants on someone else's dime was too enticing to resist. Thus began a remarkable career charting the restaurants that changed the way Americans ate, the chefs who turned cooking into an art form, and the food and wines that launched a culinary revolution. Throughout it all, Gael is convinced that food and sex are inextricably linked, and in this exuberant account of her adventures in sensuous excess, she takes readers on a joyride from the world's best tables, to al fresco lunch with Julia Child and naughty dinners with Craig Claiborne and then to bed with the men she couldn't resist-including a porn star and two Hollywood titans. The recipes she includes reflect the decades, from childhood macaroni-and-cheese to Chocolate Wickedness. Greene's tale of pleasure and heartbreak will make you laugh. It may make you cry. It will certainly make you hungry.
