Jane Takagi-Little is on the road, in search of all-American wives, cooking all-American meat.  A starving artist, she has never considered the kitchen a career move, until she agrees to produce a Japanese television show sponsored by Beef-Ex, and organization promoting American meat export.  Jane's cross-country assignment is raising cross-cultural issues - not just about her life, but also about sex, love and fertility in our time.

Akiko Ueno, a Tokoy housewife, diligently prepares 'The Meat of the Week' from the recent episode of My American Wife! Her 'salary-man' husband, the advertising agency rep for Beef-Ex, orders her to complete a weekly questionnaire, rating each show.  But Akiko learns more than just recipes from Jane's programme.

In one parallel year, the lives of two women at opposite ends of the earth are brought together in an unforgettable novel of meat, tv and personal crisis.

Soft cover, good condition.
