Did the female gourmet cook actually kill three men, or is the cook
herself a victim? Yuzuki’s book points an accusing finger at Japanese misogyny,
fatphobia, and society’s contradictory expectations of women, while dipping a
second finger into specialty butters and mouth-watering foods. Enjoy this
Japanese best-seller for a fascinating look at our cultural differences, anno
2025, and to become inspired to cook (and eat) something divine.
