具体描述
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.

Not until someone else describes it I realize how Asian/Chinese I am and always will be.
评分##亞洲人最能理解這種食物承載一切的情緒，食物既能觸發情緒也能充當therapy。Chongmi是一個極為典型的韓國/東亞母親：精緻，嚴格，給人陣痛和愛，身為混血的Michelle總在懷疑自己的白人父親是否真的有Asian fetish，或許也是典型的Wasian心境。Japanese Breakfast成功了，她現在給Mitski開場（多希望有生之年我能再看見一次），和年少時崇拜過的Karen O對談，一定是因為媽媽在天堂踩著上帝的脖子要求他給Michelle好運吧。（在控血脂期讀這本格外煎熬，每天都想吃韓餐；以及恰逢她新專巡演，火速購買明年在倫敦的gig票，I’m having a major Japanese Breakfast Fever.)
评分##很sad的一本书，但除了sad好像没有其他的point。不太明白为什么这书最近这么火。就感觉一直在堆砌事实，但又缺少中心思想。讲cancer的part不如《when breath becomes air》震撼，讲asian American的部分基本就是已经听烂了的每个asian American的心理故事，nothing special。
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##「I feel like i am losing a part of my culture because of death.」It was like she was talking to me, to someone who has experienced loss...A pure and touching memoir.「A book to cherish, share and reread.」yes, it is.
评分##A moving commemoration of the author’s mother and the Korean half of her identity. The book serves as a great reminder to cherish your loved ones in life WHILE THEY ARE STILL ALIVE. No one in this world but those who truly love you would pay detailed attention to your idiosyncrasies and idiocy alike. Don’t feel too entitled; it’s not a birth right.
