En miljon sålda exemplar - nu kommer den kultförklarade japanska bästsäljaren om kvinnlig besatthet, mat och mord äntligen på svenska. Berättelsen är inspirerad av en sann historia.
Det finns två saker jag inte accepterar: feminister och margarin.
Manako Kajii sitter dömd för att ha mördat flera affärsmän efter att ha förfört dem med sin läckra matlagning. Fallet har väckt stort intresse i Japan, men Manako vägrar att prata med media och tar inte emot besökare. Tills dess att journalisten Rika Machida skriver ett brev och ber om receptet på hennes köttgryta.
Rika är ensam kvinna på sin tidningsredaktion. Hon arbetar hårt, har inte mycket till privatliv och lagar sällan mer än en enkel ramen. Men det hon hade hoppats skulle vara ett karriärsavgörande scoop blir mer av en kurs i kulinarisk kokkonst - och istället för att komma den manipulativa seriemördaren in på livet är det snarare Rika som börjar förändras.
Med inspiration från ett verkligt rättsfall utforskar Asako Yuzuki de krav som ställs på kvinnor i dagens Japan. Smör är en smart, sylvass och samtidigt eftertänksam roman som får munnen att vattnas.
En dödligt bra roman. THE TIMES
En helfet delikatess i Michelin-nivå. THE SUNDAY TIMES

Kansainvälinen myyntimenestys käsittelee ruokaa ja ruokakulttuuria, yhteiskunnan misogyniaa ja naisten ulkonäköpaineita, kehopositiivisuutta ja fat shamingia sekä epäkonventionaalisia parisuhteita.Gourmet-kokki Manako Kajiin väitetään hurmanneen varakkaita poikamiehiä herkullisella kotiruoallaan – ja sitten myrkyttäneen heidät. Tapaus on vanginnut koko kansan huomion, mutta Tokion tutkintavankilassa istuva Kajii ei suostu puhumaan lehdistölle. Ei ennen kuin toimittaja Rika Machida keksii pyytää häneltä kirjeessään naudanlihapadan reseptiä.Tapaamiset Kajiin kanssa muistuttavat enemmän ruoanlaiton mestarikurssia kuin tutkivaa journalismia, sillä Rika toivoo gastronomisen ajatustenvaihdon murtavan Kajiin hiljaisuuden. Sen sijaan muutos tapahtuu hänessä itsessään: jokaisen syödyn aterian myötä Rikan kehossa herää jotakin uutta.
