"Remarkable...mesmerizing...compelling.... An entire world unfolds in Tolstoyan tide of event and detail....Give yourself over to the world Ms. Tan creates for you." —The New York Times Book Review Winnie and Helen have kept each other's worst secrets for more than fifty years. Now, because she believes she is dying, Helen wants to expose everything. And Winnie angrily determines that she must be the one to tell her daughter, Pearl, about the past—including the terrible truth even Helen does not know. And so begins Winnie's story of her life on a small island outside Shanghai in the 1920s, and other places in China during World War II, and traces the happy and desperate events that led to Winnie's coming to America in 1949. The Kitchen God's Wife is "a beautiful book" (Los Angeles Times) from the bestselling author of novels like The Joy Luck Club and The Backyard Bird Chronicles, and the memoir, Where the Past Begins.

One evening, I came into the kitchen planning to microwave some left-over pizza. There he was - this kitchen god. (I’m serious, stop laughing.) He said he was kicked out of the cooking universe for gross abuse of something or other. (I think it was snorting curry or cinnamon.) Anyway, he made a deal with me to publish this book and help single guys eat better and save cash. There is a lot of basic information (shopping, supplies, tools, etc.). But more important, you will learn how to enjoy food that you make yourself. You will become an adventurer, an explorer and conqueror of meat, vegetables, and condiments.
