Cuisine tatare et descendance by Alina Bronsky
5.0
One can only wonder to which extent this book is actually autobiographical, despite the fact that the narrator is the grandmother.
The skillful mix of humor and tragedy is so typical to Eastern Europe/Russia, and the grandmother's attitude, in her excess, her self-confidence (even when she's wrong), and in her love, rings so true that this is absolutely amazing.
Definitely a read that will stand out among this year's.
