About this listen
Traduzido para 35 idiomas, Uma questão de química conta a história de Elizabeth Zott, uma brilhante cientista que vê sua vida mudar quando se torna a estrela de um programa de culinária na televisão.
Elizabeth Zott é uma talentosa química que só quer realizar sua pesquisa em paz. Infelizmente, no início dos anos 1960, a comunidade científica não tem uma visão muito igualitária dos gêneros. No instituto em que ela trabalha, os homens a silenciam e sabotam diariamente. Parecem todos determinados a ir às últimas consequências para atrapalhar sua carreira.
Todos menos um. Calvin Evans, o introvertido e brilhante pesquisador idolatrado no instituto, é o único que vê Elizabeth além das aparências e a trata como igual. Contrariando todas as expectativas, ele se apaixona pela inteligência dela, e a química que surge entre eles é avassaladora.
Mas a vida é imprevisível como a ciência. Por isso, alguns anos depois, Elizabeth se vê criando a filha pequena com a ajuda apenas de seu cachorro e de uma vizinha e, por um capricho do destino, se torna a maior estrela do programa de televisão mais visto e adorado dos Estados Unidos, Jantar às Seis.
Sua abordagem incomum da culinária se mostra revolucionária e ela acaba virando o grande fenômeno da nação. Porém nem todos estão felizes com seu sucesso, porque, no fundo, Elizabeth não está apenas ensinando a cozinhar, mas desafiando as mulheres a pensar–e a transformar seu papel no mundo.

Story
Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.

Todos os dias, Millie limpa a casa de Nina e Andrew Winchester de cima a baixo. Pega a filha deles na escola. Prepara refeições deliciosas para a família toda antes de poder se recolher e enfim comer o próprio jantar, sozinha em seu quarto minúsculo e claustrofóbico no sótão. Quando Nina passa a sujar todos os cômodos de propósito só para assisti-la limpar, Millie tenta não perder a cabeça. Quando ela conta mentiras perturbadoras sobre a própria filha e tortura psicologicamente o marido, que parece mais e mais fragilizado, Millie tenta ignorar.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Story
Clark Griswold was onto something...at least with his annual holiday meltdown. And since the last three weeks of my life have been riddled with humbug—another breakup, a broken toe, an office promotion I deserved and didn’t get—I’m not at all in the mood to celebrate nor have the happ, happ, happiest Christmas EVER.

Story
My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Story
Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.

Story
When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.
