From the author of the New York Times bestseller, "The Elegance of the Hedgehog." In the heart of Paris, in the posh building made famous in "The Elegance of the Hedgehog," Pierre Athens, the greatest food critic in the world, is dying. Revered by some and reviled by many, Monsieur Arthens has been lording it over the world's most esteemed chefs for years, passing judgment on their creations, deciding their fates with a stroke of his pen, destroying and building reputations on a whim. But now, during these his final hours, his mind has turned to simpler things. He is desperately searching for that singular flavor, that sublime something once sampled, never forgotten, "the Flavor" par excellence. Indeed, this flamboyant and self-absorbed man desires only one thing before he dies: one last taste. Thus begins a charming voyage that traces the career of Monsieur Arthens from childhood to maturity across a celebration of all manner of culinary delights. Alternating with the voice of the supercilious Arthens is a chorus belonging to his acquaintances and familiars-relatives, lovers, a would-be protA(c)gA(c), even a cat. Each will have his or her say about M. Arthens, a man who has inspired only extreme emotions in people. Here, as in "The Elegance of Hedgehog," Muriel Barbery's story celebrates life's simple pleasures and sublime moments while condemning the arrogance and vulgarity of power.

一直以来简直就跟囤积居奇一样地看书看电影，然后在豆瓣上攒下来，完全没有感想，回过头来唯一能想起来的可能就是看过这个结果。强迫自己写感想，哪怕是摘录几句自认为妙极的片段，也是一种唤起自己思考和对话能力的行为，所以我强迫自己码字，试图找到生锈的大脑里是否还...  

相形之下，我拙劣的文字能力，无法描述这本书的好。 我只能大概描述下你该如何体会。 选择一个你心情平静的下午，选择一个合适的地方，可以是阳光明媚的公园一角，或者是一个咖啡不错但是人迹罕至的Bar，都很好，或者说下雨的星期天，总之，你需要给自己一个平静的内心...

对美食评论的热爱从来都无法自拔，无论是唐鲁孙只能让人空羡慕的镶红旗美食经历，还是沈宏非嬉笑怒骂的不正经美食考据学，从殳俏细腻至幼儿园肉丸子的俏皮，到蔡澜信手拈来的朴实风范，美食评论似乎永远无法叫我觉得厌倦。 所以，这本《终极美味》属于那种我不用拆封就会结帐...
