Quotes by Luke Barr (?)

“Child was a new kind of celebrity: She was a woman in her fifties, and she played herself on television. She was real. She made mistakes. Of course she was a masterful cook, but when things went wrong, she embraced the opportunity to use her mistakes to teach—here’s what you should do if this happens.”
― Luke Barr, Provence, 1970: M.F.K. Fisher, Julia Child, James Beard
