小时候极力隐藏自己的Koreaness,但在妈妈患癌不幸离世之后在韩国澡堂时害怕搓澡的阿姨在自己身上找不到这一份Koreaness. 很有意思的一点是作者以前把妈妈喜欢的泡菜的发酵理解成一种controlled death——比起自然的死亡,被盐腌制的一棵大白菜释放出二氧化碳,盐也在其中被酸...

From the indie rockstar of Japanese Breakfast fame, and author of the viral 2018 New Yorker essay that shares the title of this book, an unflinching, powerful memoir about growing up Korean American, losing her mother, and forging her own identity.
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.
Vivacious and plainspoken, lyrical and honest, Zauner’s voice is as radiantly alive on the page as it is onstage. Rich with intimate anecdotes that will resonate widely, and complete with family photos, Crying in H Mart is a book to cherish, share, and reread.
The book is characterized by Michelle’s identity and abilities to evoke images through the smallest of details. Love can be complex yet difficult, and it is represented in many ways, especially food, through which man searches for a piece of home or themselves. Likewise, readers empathize with the author to echo ourselves. //感谢Jae Yeon Kim的推荐!
评分屡屡鼻酸,too relatable. 和母亲的对抗与和解,通过食物追忆探寻identity和cultural roots. Michelle的声音有一种unfeigned vulnerability.
评分好小气推荐,Audible上听的第一本书,作者的声音低沉又具有安慰性,即使如此,读到很多很多片段我都在想她怎么做到不带哭腔地读出?太真实了太诚实了,关于很多很多和死亡有关的心思,都被她细致地捕捉到了。亲人去世后对周围没有经历失去的人的怨恨,照顾妈妈时对爸爸不能作为可靠伙伴的失望,和对照顾妈妈更熟练的阿姨的抗拒,想要用自己的婚礼让妈妈转移注意力并且让自己美的更自信的小小愿望,妈妈生病时想要化身为完美女儿为妈妈承担痛苦的念头,妈妈去世后学习做各种韩国传统料理努力不要让自己身上来自妈妈那部分身份丢失掉。但是听到作者说,父母的家被出售,那些带有回忆的地方不复存在,还是有些酸楚。失去后的重建,就像白菜被发酵成泡菜一样,尽管腐烂,却随后以另一种方式获得了新生。
