"The moment you finish, you’ll want to share this book with family and friends, just like a good meal. There is pain but so much joy – and readers will love spending time in the Reicherts’ kitchen." —NPR

"Reichert deepens the conventions of food memoirs, Holocaust memoirs, and mental health memoirs in this casually profound account of growing up as the daughter of (and sharing meals with) an Auschwitz survivor." —Conner Reed, Publishers Weekly

“I started crying on page one; a few pages later I burst into laughter. This beautifully written book takes readers on an emotional journey that is both heartbreaking and hopeful.” —Ruth Reichl, New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Novel

"It's through food that Reichert comes to face and understand her heritage, the near unimaginable suffering her father endured during the Holocaust, and the light she searches for. She is a beautiful writer with a deeply moving story to tell." —Dorie Greenspan

“Bonny Reichert’s stunning memoir is proof of the power of hope in the face of epigenetic sorrow, and how the human soul and spirit hew inexorably to healing, sustenance, and life. The need to sustain oneself and one’s loved ones is pervasive here, and Reichert’s ability to weave together a seamless story about food, love, and withering tragedy is masterful. I was captivated.” —Elissa Altman, author of Motherland

“How to Share an Egg is a beautiful, multilayered memoir taking the reader on a touching journey of discovery. In a world where so many things separate us, Reichert binds us together with a delicately woven braid of family, culture, and food.” —Jane Bertch, author of The French Ingredient

“From the very first page, I knew I’d love this book. How to Share an Egg is saturated with love and anguish, every chapter rich with emotion and detail. The warmth and honesty are so engaging, making this book truly captivating. And oh—the food! Each meal is a feast to devour, every bit as much as the prose.” —Lucy Adlington, New York Times bestselling author of The Dressmakers of Auschwitz

“A mesmerizing memoir . . . Reichert weaves a rich narrative tapestry that traces her journey toward self-knowledge in luminous prose. Nimble and nourishing, this is not to be missed.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“Reichert’s dad Saul nearly starved in Auschwitz-Birkenau. He eventually made his way to Canada, where he started a family, built a restaurant empire and fully embraced a bright new chapter where food was abundant (but never wasted). This beautiful and often heartbreaking memoir explores the role that sustenance plays in Saul’s life—and his daughter’s too.” —Chatelaine

“Absolutely transformative.” —People
