However, her entire career trajectory is an uphill battle against sexism, both explicit and implicit.
She reluctantly and unexpectedly becomes the star of a hit cooking show on tv, where she is able to intermingle her love of science and challenge women to change the status quo. There, she meets and falls in love with another chemist, but life soon leaves her to be a single, jobless mother. Set in the 1950s-1960s, Lessons in Chemistry tells the story of Elizabeth Zott, a strong and self-assured, self-educated woman who becomes a chemist at a male-dominated research institute. A best book of the year: The New York Times, Washington Post, NPR, Oprah Daily, Entertainment Weekly, Newsweek.
