Product Information

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * GMA BOOK CLUB PICK * Meet Elizabeth Zott: "a gifted research chemist, absurdly self-assured and immune to social convention" ( The Washington Post ) in 1960s California whose career takes a detour when she becomes the unlikely star of a beloved TV cooking show. * STREAM ON APPLE TV+ This novel is "irresistible, satisfying and full of fuel" ( The New York Times Book Review ) and "witty, sometimes hilarious...the Catch-22 of early feminism" (Stephen King, via Twitter). A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times, Washington Post, NPR, Oprah Daily, Entertainment Weekly, Newsweek 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 as an average woman. But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel-prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with--of all things--her mind. True chemistry results. But like science, life is unpredictable. Which is why a few years later Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother, but the reluctant star of America's most beloved cooking show Supper at Six . Elizabeth's unusual approach to cooking ("combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride") proves revolutionary. But as her following grows, not everyone is happy. Because as it turns out, Elizabeth Zott isn't just teaching women to cook. She's daring them 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 vibrant as its protagonist.

Reviews
"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." -- Maggie Shipstead , author of Great Circle "An utter delight, wry and vibrant and compulsively readable." -- Claire Lombardo , author of The Most Fun We Ever Had "I loved it and am devastated to have finished it." -- Nigella Lawson , author of Cook, Eat, Repeat, "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." -- Maggie Shipstead , author of Great Circle " Lessons in Chemistry is a breath of fresh air--a witty, propulsive, and refreshingly hopeful novel populated with singular characters. This book is an utter delight--wry, warm, and compulsively readable." -- Claire Lombardo , author of The Most Fun We Ever Had "On par with Beth Harmon of The Queen's Gambit , Elizabeth Zott swept me away with her intellect, honesty, and unapologetic selfhood. Lessons in Chemistry is a story for all the smart girls who refuse to dumb themselves down despite a culture that demands otherwise. Though a creation of the 50s & 60s, Zott is a feminist icon for our time." -- Rachel Yoder , author of Nightbitch "I loved it and am devastated to have finished it." -- Nigella Lawson , author of Cook, Eat, Repeat "[An] energetic debut...A more adorable plea for rationalism and gender equality would be hard to find." -- Kirkus (starred review) "Indefatigable and formidable, Elizabeth pushes the bounds of how women and their work are perceived in this thoroughly engaging debut novel." -- Booklist "A fabulous novel. Compelling, satisfying, a real page-turner." -- Nina Stibbe , author of Reasons to Be Cheerful, GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK "Feminism is the catalyst that makes [ Lessons in Chemistry ] fizz like hydrochloric acid on limestone. Elizabeth Zott does not have ''moxie''; she has courage. She is not a ''girl boss'' or a ''lady chemist''; she''s a groundbreaker and an expert in abiogenesis...To file Elizabeth Zott among the pink razors of the book world is to miss the sharpness of Garmus''s message. Lessons in Chemistry will make you wonder about all the real-life women born ahead of their time--women who were sidelined, ignored and worse because they weren''t as resourceful, determined and lucky as Elizabeth Zott. She''s a reminder of how far we''ve come, but also how far we still have to go." -- New York Times Book Review "[Garmus] delivers an assured voice, an indelible heroine and relatable love stories...At the center of the novel is Elizabeth Zott, a gifted research chemist, absurdly self-assured and immune to social convention...Elizabeth is a feminist and modern thinker [...] in a world nowhere ready for her mind, character or ambition...[Garmus] charm[s]. She''s created an indelible assemblage of stubborn, idiosyncratic characters. She''s given us a comic novel at precisely the moment we crave one." -- Washington Post "Strikingly relevant...Darkly funny and poignant... Lessons in Chemistry ''s excellent experiment [is] quirky and heartwarming." -- The Atlantic "In Garmus''s debut novel, a frustrated chemist finds herself at the helm of a cooking show that sparks a revolution. Welcome to the 1960s, where a woman''s arsenal of tools was often limited to the kitchen--and where Elizabeth Zott is hellbent on overturning the status quo one meal at a time." -- New York Times "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." -- Maggie Shipstead , author of Great Circle " Lessons in Chemistry is a breath of fresh air--a witty, propulsive, and refreshingly hopeful novel populated with singular characters.

Lessons in Chemistry is a story for all the smart girls who refuse to dumb themselves down despite a culture that demands otherwise. Though a creation of the 50s & 60s, Zott is a feminist icon for our time." -- Rachel Yoder , author of Nightbitch "A bold, smart, and often hilarious look at the value of so-called women''s work." -- Real Simple "I loved it and am devastated to have finished it." -- Nigella Lawson , author of Cook, Eat, Repeat "[An] energetic debut...A more adorable plea for rationalism and gender equality would be hard to find." -- Kirkus (starred review) "Indefatigable and formidable, Elizabeth pushes the bounds of how women and their work are perceived in this thoroughly engaging debut novel." -- Booklist "Like a woman-centric "Mad Men"...A witty and sharp dramedy about resilience and found families...Readers won''t be able to get enough of Elizabeth and her makeshift family. Lessons in Chemistry is a story to return to again and again." -- BookPage "A smart, funny, big-hearted debut combining chemical elements into what seems a winning formula--one whose breakneck pace and gently ironic tone should appeal to readers of literary-commercial hits by American authors such as Katherine Heiny, Emma Straub and Curtis Sittenfeld." -- Sunday Times (UK) "Elizabeth Zott is the smart, fierce star of Garmus''s witty debut...Brilliant." -- Mail on Sunday (UK) "A fabulous novel. Compelling, satisfying, a real page-turner." -- Nina Stibbe , author of Reasons to Be Cheerful, "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.

  • Does Not Live Up to the Hype

    This book received such great reviews that I though it would be a "must read," so I bought it. It is nothing but disappointing. I'm a critical reader, and was put off by the trite writing and sloppy use of the English language. The central character, Elizabeth, is a one-dimensional female counterpart of Sheldon Cooper (on Big Bang Theory). Her child prodigy daughter, who, at the age of 4, converses like a college-educated adult, and a dog that thinks in English and thinks like a human both are outlandish. And the endless descriptions of rowing put me to sleep. It became a little more interesting toward the end of the book, but even the ending was predictable. If you enjoy situation comedies such as The Goldbergs, you probably will like this book. If you enjoy reading beautiful descriptive ...
