{"product_id":"9781415949344","title":"Trail of Crumbs: Hunger, Love, and the Search for Home A Memoir","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlready hailed as \"brave, emotional, and gorgeously written\" by author Frances Mayes, this is a unique memoir about the search for identity through love, hunger, and food. When Kim Sunée was three years old, her mother took her to a marketplace, deposited her on a bench with a fistful of food, and promised she'd be right back. Three days later a policeman took the little girl, clutching what was now only a fistful of crumbs, to a police station and told her that she'd been abandoned by her mother. Fast-forward almost 20 years and Kim's life is unrecognizable. Adopted by a young New Orleans couple, she spends her youth as one of only two Asian children in her entire community. At the age of 21, she becomes involved with a famous French businessman and suddenly finds herself living in France, mistress over his houses in Provence and Paris, and stepmother to his eight year-old daughter. Kim takes listeners on a lyrical journey from Korea to New Orleans to Paris and Provence, along the way serving forth her favorite recipes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA love story at heart, this memoir is about the search for identity and a book that will appeal to anyone who is passionate about love, food, travel, and the ultimate search for self.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Books on Tape, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47095031070960,"sku":"9781415949344","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781415949344_p0.jpg?v=1763726152","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781415949344","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
