Deal Details
Various Digital Retailers have Crying in H Mart: A Memoir (Kindle eBook) by Michelle Zauner on sale for $1.99.

Thanks to Deal Hunter phoinix for finding this deal.

Available Retailers:About this Title:
  • Author: Michelle Zauner
  • Page Length: 239
  • In this exquisite story of family, food, grief, and endurance, Michelle Zauner proves herself far more than a dazzling singer, songwriter, and guitarist. With humor and heart, she tells of growing up one of the few Asian American kids at her school in Eugene, Oregon; of struggling with her mother's particular, high expectations of her; of a painful adolescence; of treasured months spent in her grandmother's tiny apartment in Seoul, where she and her mother would bond, late at night, over heaping plates of food.
  • As she grew up, moving to the East Coast for college, finding work in the restaurant industry, and performing gigs with her fledgling band--and meeting the man who would become her husband--her Koreanness began to feel ever more distant, even as she found the life she wanted to live. It was her mother's diagnosis of terminal cancer, when Michelle was twenty-five, that forced a reckoning with her identity and brought her to reclaim the gifts of taste, language, and history her mother had given her.

I've been crying in H Mart myself. Short ribs are $18 lbs now when it used to be $9.99!

If you are trying to make a joke, there are only a few in the produce section...way less than the variety of potatoes at an American store...

But this book is a great read. It deals with the difficult themes of loss and grief, and complicated relationships between parents and child.

Quote from hjaeho11 :
Story about korean and korean mart not japanese
No you don't understand. The author has a band named "Japanese Breakfast". But otherwise yes, the author is mixed Korean. The story is not so much about H-Mart but more so about the author's relationship with her ailing mother through her Korean recipes.

No. They were just trying to be acute.
