Three Great Audiobooks about Chinese Cuisine
from AudioFile's Behind the Mic, with Robin Whitten and Jo Reed
AudioFile Editor Robin Whitten and host Jo Reed shine a spotlight on three delicious audiobooks all about the rich history of Chinese cuisine. For the youngest listeners, A BANQUET FOR CECILIA by Julie Leung and read by Cindy Kay tells the story of restaurateur Cecilia Chiang. For middle-grade listeners, Grace Lin’s CHINESE MENU, read by Lisa Ling, shares tales of iconic dishes and dragons, monks, emperors, and other heroes. And for grown-ups, the mouthwatering INVITATION TO A BANQUET, written and read by Fuchsia Dunlop, takes listeners on a tour of China and regional foods. Don’t listen hungry!
