INCLUDES AN EXCLUSIVE AUTHOR INTERVIEW WITH PANDORA SYKES

Your ability to change everything - including yourself - starts here

Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing.

But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute take a very unscientific view of equality. Forced to resign, she reluctantly signs on as the host of a cooking show, Supper at Six. But her revolutionary approach to cooking, fuelled by scientific and rational commentary, grabs the attention of a nation.

Soon, a legion of overlooked housewives find themselves daring to change the status quo. One molecule at a time.

‘Laugh-out-loud funny and brimming with life, generosity and courage’ RACHEL JOYCE

'A novel that sparks joy with every page' ELIZABETH DAY

Kritikerstimmen

The most charming, life-enhancing novel I've read in ages. A perfect delight. It's about Elizabeth Zott, a scientist who accidentally becomes a TV cook in the early 1960s. Very strongly recommend
This triumphant feminist fable, wittily observed, is teeming with vivid comic set-pieces
Polished, funny, thought-provoking. Wearing its research lightly but confidently with sentences so stylishly turned it's hard to believe it's a debut ... The real pleasure is in the dry wit of Garmus's writing
Not only is Elizabeth an unforgettable character, so too are her adorable dog Six Thirty and daughter, Mad. This is a truly unique book with some great life lessons
A book that sparks joy with every page. LESSONS IN CHEMISTRY is both funny and rousing: it had me laughing one minute and air-punching the next. Bonnie Garmus has created an unforgettable heroine
It's the world versus Elizabeth Zott, an extraordinary woman determined to live on her own terms, and I had no trouble choosing a side. Lessons in Chemistry is a page-turning and highly satisfying tale: zippy, zesty, and Zotty
Full of humour, heartbreak and characters who feel like real people. This is a book that everyone will be talking about
I haven't loved a character as much as the hero of this joyful, warm debut in a very long time
Absolutely unputdownable. I completely loved it
A transporting read, recommended for fans of Where'd You Go, Bernadette and The Marvelous Mrs Maisel

I loved this book. It is eloquently written, deep and multi-faceted. Even though I read critical voices who disliked the dog 6.30, I specifically cherish this character. This book is not a story of the past, but actually shows society's flaws today. There are still too many issues concerning mysogyny and the lack of equity.

emancipation and female empowerment

A modern fairytale that's both painfully sad and hilariously funny. What made this Audible version so special for me is the wonderful way the voice artist conveys every nuance and character, and it was great hearing the author herself speak so eloquently and entertainingly about her writing.

Miranda makes it special

Exzellent! Wounderful! Amazing! I need more. Think I am adicted. What a wounderful story. Love ist.

The best book ever

… but the longer I listened to the story and got to know the main character (especially Elisabeth) the more I was curious about how the story will continue.

What I really liked most:
- the story included a lot of surprising changes
- the characters were beautifully and carefully described, they became more and more lively (the daughter, the friend, the boss, and, especially the dog 😍)
- very interesting storyline, a female chemist during the sixties, how she struggled to get enough respect/ appreciation)

… it was a very good companion- enjoy 😊

It took a while…

I liked the book quite well and would recommend it, but I definitely would have had a more comfortable experience if I knew beforehand that a rape case was described in detail.
I was disappointed by the end though because








[Spoiler]
after all her hard work and resilience, she gets the job, funding and a little justice because the rich MIL throws money on the problem?
But perhaps the success of a woman in science in this time period is really less realistic than a dog as intelligent as a preschooler.

TW would have been nice
