Crying in H Mart
by Michelle Zauner
Usually, celebrity memoirs are so clearly ghostwritten that you’re not there for the writing at all, just the gossip they drop. Crying in H Mart feels personal and literary in a way that nothing else in its genre has to me so far, and I consumed it in one sitting, finally finishing it at around 4:30 AM. Though I’m somewhat tired of hearing AAPI talk about being too blank for blank, but not blank enough for blank, Zauner’s examination of her relationship with her mother saves this novel. Reading this made me want to crawl into my mother’s lap and listen to Mitski’s “Class of 2013”. Proceed with caution if you are prone to overwhelming emotion when thinking of your parents like I am.
