When an accident obliterated Molly Birnbaum's sense of smell, it
also destroyed her dream of becoming a chef, and sent her instead
upon a brave and uncertain mission to reawaken her nose. Writing
with emotional honesty, intellectual curiosity, and a foodie's feel
for descriptive precision, she explores the science of olfaction
and pheromones, ponders Proust's madeleine and her own scent
memory, and quizzes psychologists, perfumiers, and ice-cream
inventors, all in an effort to overcome her condition. From
cinnamon and cedarwood to bacon and her boyfriend's shirt, we
follow Molly as she gradually rediscovers the scented world and
captures in apt, piquant words the rich layer of life that tends to
be wordless.
