Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it's the 1960s and despite the fact that she is a scientist, her peers are very unscientific when it comes to equality. The only good thing to happen to her on the road to professional fulfillment is a run-in with her super-star colleague Calvin Evans (well, she stole his beakers.) The only man who ever treated her-and her ideas-as equal, Calvin is already a legend and Nobel nominee. He's also awkward, kind and tenacious. Theirs is true chemistry. But as events are never as predictable as chemical reactions, three years later Elizabeth Zott is an unwed, single mother (did we mention it's the early 60s??) and the star of America's most beloved cooking show Supper at Six. Elizabeth's singular approach to cooking ('take one pint of H2O and add a pinch of sodium chloride') and independent example are proving revolutionary. Because Elizabeth isn't just teaching women how to cook, she's teaching them how to change the status quo. Laugh-out-loud funny, shrewdly observant, and studded with a dazzling cast of supporting characters, Lessons in Chemistry is as original and vibrantas its protagonist"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Women scientists $v Fiction. $9 87765 650 0 $a Single mothers $v Fiction. $9 86663 650 0 $a Television cooking shows $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Sex role $v Fiction. $9 88253 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft $9 83459 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft $9 200624 700 1 $a Alonso Blanco, Victoria, $e translator. 830 0 $a Narrativa (Salamandra (Firm)) $9 62508 941 $a 8 952 $l HQPD845 $d 20240516020011.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240206010604.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240125011523.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20231202011226.0 952 $l A2PD787 $d 20230902011905.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230713113959.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20230708011441.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20230523012126.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=74455DD0F92F11ED9B9A064150ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
