Beschreibung
Hugely entertaining' Jay Rayner, Observer'Addictive' Stylist 'James does for wine what Anthony Bourdain did for the high-pressure, low-margin world of professional restaurants, exposing secrets kept from customers' Financial Times'James writes powerfully . . . you'll raise a glass to her extraordinary resilience' Sunday TimesAged thirteen, Victoria James started her first job in a diner in New Jersey. Aged nineteen, Victoria was serving sugary Cosmopolitans in a restaurant off Broadway.Aged twenty-one, Victoria was named the US's youngest sommelier, working in Michelin-starred restaurants, serving the finest wines. The groping patrons she learned to handle, but, behind the scenes, the world of high-end dining was a mess of fractious relationships and unacknowledged abuse. It would take hitting rock-bottom for Victoria to find her way back to the industry she adores. Wine Girl is the memoir of a young woman breaking free from her traumatic childhood. It's the story of overcoming a notoriously misogynistic business, and of the restorative power of a glass of wine with friends.'For anyone interested in food, or the dark underbelly and exhilarating fizz of restaurant life . . . a page-turning read' inews 'An uplifting story of grit and resilience that will leave you with an appetite for the pleasures that James so vividly describes' Mail on Sunday von James, Victoria
