Booklist calls author Monique Truong a "gifted storyteller." Here Truong pens a mesmerizing tale starring Linda Hammerick, a woman with a truly unique gift-the ability to experience words through taste.

Yet when a tragedy occurs, Linda has no choice but to return home to North Carolina. "[A] powerful novel-Booklist, starred review
