ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Lessons in Chemistry: A Novel by Bonnie Garmus introduces Elizabeth Zott, a determined chemist navigating a male-dominated scientific world in the mid-20th century. After an unexpected turn of events leaves her a single mother, Elizabeth reluctantly finds herself hosting a television cooking show, Supper at Six. However, she uses this platform unconventionally, weaving in scientific principles and empowering her viewers with knowledge. As Elizabeth gains unexpected fame, she faces scrutiny and misrepresentation, while her daughter Madeline's curiosity about her late father, Calvin Evans, and the interest of the Parker Foundation begin to uncover long-held secrets from the past. The narrative explores themes of sexism in science, the challenges of single motherhood, and the power of intellect and truth in the face of societal expectations.
