Reminiscing about life in kitchens, the hospitality industry, history, customer expectations, challenges and an amusing look at over eager cookbook writers. After spending close to 70 years in the industry I am still fascinated by people, food, taste, complains and accolades. I pay homage to my colleagues who labor behind the kitchen door, unseen and usually unknown to the customers putting your food together. They are the heroes of our industry. I talk about the pantry workers toiling away and the stewards keeping the kitchens humming. I talk about the challenges and pressures and about the sad fact that chefs create food but don't eat it themselves.

During my time as Executive Chef from 1969 to 1979 The Waldorf - Astoria Hotel on Park Avenue in New York City was still the unofficial Palace of New York. Famous people lived in The Towers, Dignitaries from around the world were honored by dinners, gourmet societies came to enjoy wine and food and glamorous soirees took place in the elegant banquet rooms. History was made at diplomatic conferences and the most brilliant minds in the world presided over meetings.

My mother wrote a diary from 1946 to 1949 about her life as mother with four children in postwar Austria. Life was diddicult, there were shortages, food was scares, children got sick, school issues, living in an apartment with cold water tap, shared toilet on hallway. Yet the book is full of optimism, rich cultural and religious life and how she coped.

When I came to New York May 1959 I was lucky get get hired as Chef Poissonier at the prestigious Hotel St. Regis.

The book is about Gastronomy, about cooks and chefs, the appreciation of matching food and wine, stories about catering in Colombia.

The concluding installment of translator Woods's stupendous four-volume edition of "the German Joyce's" Collected Early Fiction, 1949-1964. Schmidt (1914-79) was a modernist master whose deeply unconventional fiction employs distorted grammar, punctuation, and typography in an all-out effort to render as accurately as possible, and in unedited and uncensored form, the fragmented nature of consciousness. Thus, The Stony Heart(1954) wittily conflates the adventures of historical researcher Walter Eggers as he pursues his scholarly quarry in a rural setting where he makes amazing discoveries about the local landscape ("Drunkards exist among sheep. . .") and short work of his hostess's wavering fidelity to her philandering husband. This novel's intermittent paeans to German literary culture and rude burlesques of Nazism are given more complex, if less immediately engaging form, in (the ingeniously retitled) B/Moondocks (1960), whose narrator Karl Richter's amatory pursuit of his troubled mistress stimulates him to invent a picaresque tale of the colonization of the moon. Both Richter's manipulation of his helpless Hertha and the aggressive sexuality of his mysterious "Auntee Hecta" subtly suggest the lurking presences of domination and sadism in what seems a tamed and reformed culture. Runaway puns and abstruse literary references further ruffle and complicate the surface of a fascinating work whose meanings are well worth digging for. And here's hoping translator Woods is at work on the rest of Schmidt's demanding rewarding oeuvre. (Kirkus Reviews)

The second volume (of three) of the great German novelist Arno Schmidt's radio presentations

A collection of pieces on German, English and American literature by the great German author Arno Schmidt.

Since its publication in 1970 Zettel's Traum/Bottom's Dream has been regarded as Arno Schimdt's magnum opus, as the definitive work of a titan of postwar German literature. Readers are now invited to explore its verbally provocative landscape in an English translation by John E. Woods.

Among Schmidt enthusiasts, scholars, and fans, the two novels stand in sharp contrast to one another, the first belonging to his early, more realistic phase, and the second introducing his later, more experimentalphase. But the hairs are not worth splitting.

Efter Anden Verdenskrigs afslutning befandt hele Centraleuropa, og særligt Tyskland, sig i nulvte time, Stunde Null, som tilstanden også betegnes. Intet sted viser dette tomrum sig tydeligere end i litteraturen, for hvad kan man skrive om, når alt ligger i ruiner? Kortprosaforfatterne valgte at beskrive det, som var. De fikserede på denne måde virkeligheden i et røntgenblik og fremviste situationen i hele sin fortvivlende håbløshed; kun sådan kunne et håb få lov til at spire igen. Min blege bror. Tysk kortprosa efter krigen tæller – udover store, anerkendte forfattere som nobelpristageren Heinrich Böll, Ingeborg Bachmann og Arno Schmidt – også mindre kendte forfattere som Elisabeth Langgässer, Hans F. Bender og Luise Rinser. Flere af teksterne indeholder skildringer af hverdagsliv, eller mangel på samme, i en turbulent efterkrigstid, som er farvet af hungersnød, inflation og enorme traumer, psykiske som fysiske. Andre tekster peger mere frem mod kortprosaens videre udvikling og på udviklingen inden for nyere litteratur generelt.
