A must-read deb ut novel! Meet Elizabeth Zott: a one-of-a-kind scientist in 1960s Californ ia whose career takes a detour when she becomes the star of a beloved TV c ooking show.
\nChemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact\, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no suc h thing as an \;average \;woman. But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific vie w of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans\; the lonely\, brilliant\, Nob el-prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with&mdash\; of all thi ngs&mdash\; her mind. True chemistry results. \;
\nBut like scie nce\, life is unpredictable. Which is why a few years later Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother\, but the reluctant star of Americ a's most beloved cooking show \;Supper at Six. Elizabeth's unusual app roach to cooking ("combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodi um chloride") proves revolutionary. But as her following grows\, not every one is happy. Because as it turns out\, Elizabeth Zott isn't just teaching women to cook. She's daring them to change the status quo. \;
\nLaugh-out-loud funny\, shrewdly observant\, and studded with a dazzling c ast of supporting characters\, \;Lessons in Chemistry \;is as orig inal and vibrant as its protagonist.
