Award-winning magazine writer Jon Reiner will discuss and sign his book The Man Who Couldn't Eat, about the illness, infection, and doctor's orders that prevented him from eating or drinking anything at all for months. "An engrossing and candid memoir. As a piece of writing, it's fearless and singular." --Publishers Weekly Jon Reiner won the 2010 James Beard Foundation Award for Magazine Feature Writing with Recipes for the collaborative Esquire article “How Men Eat.”  His memoir, The Man Who Couldn’t Eat, is based on an acclaimed article of the same name that he wrote for Esquire in 2009.  He lives in New York City with his wife and two children.
