The Kitchen Chronicles: 1001 Lunches with J. Krishnamurti

Michael Krohnen's memoir of conversations and life with Jiddu Krishnamurti.From the author's foreword to the 2nd edition: J. Krishnamurti's long and creative life ended in 1986. Subsequently, it took me about ten years to originally compose this book. It was first published in 1997. It presents a view of a great, liberated human being's daily life, from the perspective of his chef who had regular interaction with him. This memoir aims to convey his great sense of humor, to share his anecdotes and jokes, but also to touch on the more serious aspects of his teaching. This second edition keeps a memoir in print that aims to present Krishnamurti in his everyday life-sharing one person's perception of this most extraordinary human being. He lived the teachings.
