Descripción del artículo del vendedor

A triumph of poetic beauty and a moving meditation on how love and food are inextricably entwined, M n is a seductive and luminous work of literature from Kim Th y, whose first book, Ru, was shortlisted for the Scotiabank Giller Prize, received a Governor General's Literary Award and won the nationwide book competition Canada Reads. M n has three mothers: the one who gives birth to her in wartime, the nun who plucks her from a vegetable garden, and her beloved Maman, who becomes a spy to survive. Seeking security for her grown daughter, Maman finds M n a husband--a lonely Vietnamese restaurateur who lives in Montreal. Thrown into a new world, M n discovers her natural talent as a chef. Gracefully she practices her art, with food as her medium. She creates dishes that are much more than sustenance for the body: they evoke memory and emotion, time and place, and even bring her customers to tears. M n is a mystery--her name means perfect fulfillment, yet she and her husband seem to drift along, respectfully and dutifully. But when she encounters a married chef in Paris, everything changes in the instant of a fleeting touch, and M n discovers the all-encompassing obsession and ever-present dangers of a love affair. Full of indelible images of beauty, delicacy and quiet power, M n is a novel that begs to be savoured for its language, its sensuousness and its love of life.…
