cookieclutter's review against another edition
Zauner beautifully explores the mother-daughter relationship through the lens of a multiethnic family. As a second-gen immigrant & person of mixed ethnicity, I found myself relating a lot to Zauner, especially in the last two chapters. The emphasis on food served so much more to the story than just a way to make readers hungry. I often found myself craving the foods described while also experiencing the emotions felt by the author in each chapter. If you're searching for a food memoir with a bit of everything, consider checking out "Crying in H-Mart".
