The irascible New York City cook Kenny Shopsin never met a curse word he didn’t love, and the tirades from his cramped restaurants are the stuff of legend. His daughter Tamara, a graphic designer and sometime chef in the family kitchens, has inherited his fondness for the profane but she’s also a romantic, and she shows these twin sides in her memoir, “Mumbai New York Scranton.” Through terse prose and charming illustrations, Tamara chronicles a year filled with drama yet also strange moments of grace, taking her from the rickshaw-clogged Indian city of Kochi to a hospital bed in New York to her unlikely second home in the Rust Belt: “I’m not sure what the people of Scranton do for a living. I know there is a ring-pop factory.” Scribner, $25.
