A memoir from a Cambodian refugee who lost her country and her family during Pol Pot's genocide in the 1970s but who finds hope by reclaiming the recipes she tasted in her mother's kitchen.
Brutal though ultimately hopeful ... The book is not only an impactful memoir of an extraordinary woman but a human-centered take on an era that has largely been defined by a lack of humanity.
Lyrical, harrowing, and fiercely feminist ... Unforgettably wise, Slow Noodles is a testament to the transformative strength an individual possesses during life’s darkest moments.
