Summary

In Lessons in Chemistry, Bonnie Garmus introduces us to Elizabeth Zott, a fiercely intelligent chemist in 1960s America — where women weren’t expected to work in labs, let alone lead them. 
But when she’s pushed out of the scientific world, Elizabeth unexpectedly becomes the star of a hit cooking show. Her secret? She’s not just teaching recipes — she’s teaching science, self-respect, and resistance to millions of housewives trapped in societal expectations. 
This novel is witty, bold, and deeply empowering — a story about breaking barriers, rewriting roles, and proving that revolution sometimes starts at the dinner table. 
Perfect for listeners who love smart female leads, social commentary, and stories where chemistry is both literal and metaphorical.
