TRAIL OF CRUMBS: HUNGER, LOVE, AND THE SEARCH FOR HOME
by Kim Sunee

When Kim Sunee was three years old, her mother abandoned her, in a Korean marketplace. Adopted by a less-than-perfect family in New Orleans, she learns about Cajun cooking from her grandfather.
In her early twenties, Sunee goes to France and becomes involved with multimillionaire Olivier Bausson, a very controlling entrepreneur. She leads a charmed life, but is not happy. Only through food does she find solace.
Trail of Crumbs is a sensuous, lyrical, intimate memoir, with mouth-watering descriptions of gorgeous meals that she prepares in Provence. The recipes are at the end of chapters.
A beautifully written book.
