Who is Coleman L. Eckman?

Coleman L. Eckman comes to our catalogue by way of practical health writing, and Fatty Liver Diet Cookbook is refreshingly unambiguous about its purpose. Everything we can fairly say about this author sits inside that book, and the book makes no attempt to be about anything other than what its title says.

It belongs to the working end of the health and wellbeing shelf rather than the memoir or manifesto end. There is no grand theory on offer. The remit is narrower and, to my mind, rather more useful: take a condition that sends people home from an appointment with a vague instruction to change their diet, and turn that instruction into meals a person can actually cook on a Tuesday evening.

Coleman L. Eckman in audiobooks

The audiobook runs a little over three hours and is read by Robyn Green, whose steady, unhurried delivery suits material of this kind. Cookery in audio asks something particular of a narrator, because quantities and method have to land clearly the first time and nobody wants to rewind with floury hands. Green reads for comprehension rather than performance, which is precisely right.

It makes a sensible companion for a commute, a walk, or a first pass through the kitchen before you commit to a shopping list. There is no sequence to worry about and no prior listening required. Have a look at the audiobook below and see whether the approach suits you.
