本書榮獲入圍：
國際專業烹飪協會（IACP）圖書獎
2012年「飲食文學類」最後決選名單
食物的味道，情人的味道，老家的味道……
沒有了嗅覺，不只是失去嗅聞與品嚐的能力，
所有深藏在氣味中的美好回憶與情緒，
突然都悄悄地溜走，一去不回。
When a head injury obliterated twenty-two-year-old Molly Birnbaum’s sense of smell, it destroyed her dream of becoming a chef. Determined to reawaken her nose, she bravely sets off on a quest to rediscover the scented world. On the way, she seeks out everyone from former poet laureate Robert Pinsky to neuroscientist Oliver Sacks. A moving personal story packed with surprising facts about the senses, Season to Taste brims with the scents of Molly’s world—cinnamon, cedarwood, fresh bagels, and lavender—lost and finally found. In Season to Taste, Molly describes an ineffable, but indispensable, layer of life.
