Kitchens of the Great Midwest, the debut novel by J. Ryan Stradal, is a fun read for foodies and non-foodies alike. Each chapter tells the story of one step in Eva Thorvald's culinary journey from infancy to world famous chef. What is unexpected is that the chapters are vignettes written from the perspective of different characters. The individual chapters are in turn hilarious and heartbreaking.
