SUMMARY:Bookclub - THE BOOK OF SALT by Monique Truong
DESCRIPTION:FVH Book Club- Season 5 \nBinh\, a Vietnamese cook\, flees Saigon in 1929\, disgracing his family to serve as a galley hand at sea. The taunts of his now-deceased father ringing in his ears\, Binh answers an ad for a live-in cook at a Parisian household\, and soon finds himself employed by Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas. \nToklas and Stein hold court in their literary salon\, for which the devoted yet acerbic Binh serves as chef\, and as a keen observer of his “Mesdames” and their distinguished guests. But when the enigmatic literary ladies decide to journey back to America\, Binh is faced with a monumental choice: will he\, the self-imposed “exile\,” accompany them to yet another new country\, return to his native Vietnam\, or make Paris his home? \n(from Goodreads) \n  \nRead or listen to an extract: \nhttps://www.amazon.com/Book-Salt-Novel-Monique-Truong/dp/0618446885 \nAdditional Info: \nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Book_of_Salt \nMonique Truong: \nhttp://www.mostlyfiction.com/authorqa/truong.htm \nPlease follow and like us:Share this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)Click to share on Google+ (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window)Like this:Like Loading...\n\n	Related\n
