En savoir plus sur le livre
From the indie rockstar of Japanese Breakfast and author of a viral 2018 New Yorker essay, this powerful memoir delves into the complexities of growing up Korean American, losing her mother, and forging an identity. Michelle Zauner shares her story with humor and heart, recounting her experiences as one of the few Asian American kids in Eugene, Oregon, and the challenges of meeting her mother's high expectations. She reflects on a painful adolescence and cherished moments spent in her grandmother's small Seoul apartment, bonding with her mother over shared meals. As she moved to the East Coast for college, worked in the restaurant industry, and performed with her band, her connection to her Korean heritage began to fade. However, her mother's terminal cancer diagnosis at twenty-five prompted a profound reckoning with her identity, leading her to reclaim the gifts of taste, language, and history imparted by her mother. Zauner's vivacious and honest voice shines through in this lyrical narrative, enriched with intimate anecdotes and family photos. This memoir is a heartfelt exploration of family, food, grief, and resilience, making it a book to cherish and revisit.
