Acerca de esta escucha

A cross-cultural tale of two women brought together by the intersections of television and industrial agriculture, fertility and motherhood, life and love—the breakout hit by the celebrated author of A Tale for the Time Being and The Book of Form and Emptiness

Ruth Ozeki’s mesmerizing debut novel has captivated audiences and reviewers worldwide. When documentarian Jane Takagi-Little finally lands a job producing a Japanese television show that just happens to be sponsored by an American meat-exporting business, she uncovers some unsavory truths about love, fertility, and a dangerous hormone called DES. Soon she will also cross paths with Akiko Ueno, a beleaguered Japanese housewife struggling to escape her overbearing husband. Hailed by USA Today as “rare and provocative” and awarded the Kirayama Prize for Literature of the Pacific Rim, My Year of Meats is a modern-day take on Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle for fans of Michael Pollan, Margaret Atwood, and Barbara Kingsolver.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“In precise and luminous prose, Ozeki captures both the sweep and detail of our shared humanity. The result is gripping, fearless, inspiring and true."Madeline Miller, author of the Orange Prize winner The Song of Achilles

“Wonderfully wild and bracing . . . A feast that leaves you hungry for whatever Ozeki cooks up next.”—Newsweek

My Year of Meats pulsates with passion. . . . Ozeki’s first novel detonates an attack on the meat industry that would make Upton Sinclair sit up and smile . . . yet all this energy doesn’t obscure the novel’s quirky charm.”—USA Today

Hard to listen to in parts, but well worth the read and the information about DES and the awful way we raise our meat. Makes me want to try harder at vegetarian / pescaterian.

Very good

I enjoyed the way the story was told. I could truly get a sense for each character and understood their unique characteristics. I loved how Jane tied up loose ends with every family she contacted. It didn't leave me with tons of unanswered questions and the story felt complete.

Excellent Storytelling!!
