INCLUDES AN EXCLUSIVE AUTHOR INTERVIEW WITH PANDORA SYKES
Meet Elizabeth Zott. Scientist. Trailblazer. Rule-breaker.
The multi-award-winning international bestseller, now a major Apple TV+ series starring Brie Larson.
There is no such thing as an average woman. Especially not Elizabeth Zott.
It's the early 1960s, and Elizabeth is a brilliant chemist working in a world that believes science is a man's job.
At Hastings Research Institute, the only colleague who truly recognises her extraordinary mind is Calvin Evans, a brilliant, Nobel Prize-nominated chemist. But life has other plans.
When Elizabeth becomes the reluctant star of America's most popular cooking show, Supper at Six, she refuses to tell women simply how to cook. Instead, she teaches them to question the rules, trust themselves and change their lives.
As millions tune in, Elizabeth is no longer demonstrating recipes. She is challenging the status quo, one molecule at a time.

Klantrecensies
Brilliant and insightful
This audiobook was a joy from start to finish. Elizabeth Zott’s story is inspiring, clever, and emotional. A fierce reminder of how women in STEM had to fight for every bit of recognition.
The narration was spot-on: witty where it needed to be, heartfelt in all the right moments. It made the story feel alive and sharp, bringing out both the humour and the frustration of a woman defying expectations in a man’s world.
Truly an unforgettable listen. Smart, empowering, and deeply human.
Beach Read
Drab and unrealistic. Had zero empathy with the protagonist.
Shame. It seemed like an interesting premise for a novel. Beach reading but not for a serious read.
