Présentation
Michelle Zauner — better known as indie rockstar Japanese Breakfast — grew up the only Asian-American kid in her Oregon school, anchored to her Korean identity by her mother and by food: the H Mart aisles, the jars of kimchi, the rituals of the table. When her mother is diagnosed with terminal cancer, those flavours become the language of love and, soon, of grief. Crying in H Mart is an unflinching, deeply moving memoir about losing a parent and cooking your way back to yourself. Few books about grief are this alive — or make you this hungry.
