#read99women: Ann Mah
Most of the writers I’ve featured so far in the #read99women series specialize in either fiction or nonfiction, but today’s guest, Ann Mah, applies her considerable talents to both genres with equal skill. If you’ve read her mouth-watering food writing, you know it’s not to be read on an empty stomach.
Her bio: Ann Mah is a food and travel writer and novelist based in Washington, D.C. and Paris. A regular contributor to the New York Times’ Travel section, her articles have also appeared in Condé Nast Traveler, the Washington Post, Vogue.com, Food52, BonAppétit.com, Best American Travel Writing 2017, The New York Times: Footsteps, and other publications. Her most recent novel, THE LOST VINTAGE, was a USA Today bestseller and Indie Next pick. Her other books include a memoir, a novel, and a French cookbook for the Instant Pot. Her books have been translated into eleven languages.
Ann’s pick is THE LAST BOOK PARTY by Karen Dukess, which has also won honors from Parade, O Magazine, and the New York Post. Ann calls it “a modern yet timeless coming-of-age story about friendship, romance, and one young woman's complicated relationship with a wickedly charming family of literary superstars.” Read the rest of her rave review here.
