Interesting. I did not get to read Lessons in Chemistry before I happened to catch the mini-series on Apple TV. It was well-produced, I thought, and somehow Zott’s robotic, not self-reflective character made sense in the “film.” The traumas were addressed (maybe a little awkwardly) and though she seemed stoic at times, I guess the actor’s expressions and body language reflected what she was feeling/thinking. The difference between watching and reading, I suppose! I appreciate your review of the book, though…..makes sense.

Great short reads. Didn’t we all share food, really good pizza in my case, outside, at a safe distance, with friend's, during the pandemic? It was one of the nice things about that time. The eclipse, or eclipses, as markers in time, a rending of timespace. And a bittersweet memory from youth told well in few words, evanescent, yet burning as bright in your mind as the sun returning from behind the moon.
