LESLIE LANDIS: THE ART OF OVEREATING      7PM

Fed up with fat-phobia? Practicing clinical psychologist Leslie Landis visits with her book, The Art of Overeating: A Bellyful of Laughs About Our Food-Phobic Culture, the anti-diet bible that’s chock-full of not-too-weighty wisdom. It flies in the face (not to mention the sucked-in gut) of our calorie-obsessed culture. Above all, it finds the funny bone in our culinary excess while offering reassurance that there’s no such thing as too much food. Witty text and imaginative illustrations encourage us to dig in and enjoy our meals, while imparting essential tips such as “The best way to eat healthy is to eat in large quantities. How else can you be sure you’re getting all the vitamins and minerals you need?” Interesting and informative food facts enliven the pages, while the author’s wry style makes it clear she’s not endorsing gluttony -- just reminding us to have a little fun with our fries. For those who love laughter, life, and food, here’s a treat worth indulging in. And it doesn’t even contain a single calorie!
