This is a grief memoir. It is well written, but I was not in the right psychic space for this account. In her mid-20s, as the author is starting life, pursuing a music career and moving toward marriage, her mother is ending life, dying of cancer. Learning of her mother’s diagnosis shifted the author from a rebellious adolescent to a devoted daughter. Essential to her grieving is an exploration of the Korean heritage of her mother, particularly the food.

I’m not sure why this didn’t quite resonate with me. It had all the right ingredients but just didn’t quite reach my heart.

This is a very heartfelt group being an American with half Korean heritage. Zauner and her mother had a difficult relationship, but love always won out between them. It is about the loss of her mother and finding her in the taste of her youth. Great book on mother/daughter dynamics.

How did I find this book? Literati's Facebook page had recommendations. This book was recommended by Kai Gerber and Barack Obama.
