Kitchens of the Great Midwest by J. Ryan Stradel
Kitchens of the Great Midwest is such a lovely tapestry of a tale. From beginning to end, the story of Eva envelops you whole and does not let you go long after youâve turned the last page. I have an ever growing love for midwestern authors especially since moving to this beautiful region of the US. The writing style of the authors in this area is distinctly different from their counterparts inâŚ

Great reviews for upcoming debut novel Kitchens of the Great Midwest by J. Ryan Stradal! In Kitchens of the Great Midwest, a charming, fast-moving round robin tale of food, sensuality and Midwestern culture, Mr. Stradal has delivered one extremely tasty, well-seasoned debut in what is sure to be a long and savory career.âJanet Fitch, author White Oleander and Paint It Black.Â
"A Great American Novel in the fullest sense of the term. Everything you want a book to be."âBen Loory, author of Stories for Nighttime and Some for the DayÂ
âTender, funny, and moving, J. Ryan Stradal's debut novel made me crave my mother's magic cookie bars...and every good tomato I've ever had the privilege of eating. Kitchens of the Great Midwest manages to be at once sincere yet sharply observed, thoughtful yet swiftly paced, and the lives of its fallible, realistic, and complicated characters mattered to me deeply. It's a fantastic book.ââ Edan Lepucki, bestselling author of CaliforniaÂ
"An impossible-to-put-down, one-of-a-kind novel. The prose is beautiful, the characters are unique and memorable, and the plot is surprising at every turn. I have never read a book quite like thisâand neither, I'll bet, have you. This stunning debut announces J. Ryan Stradal as a first-rate voice in American fiction. This is a wildly creative, stunningly original, and very moving novel. I can't wait to see what Stradal does next."â Rob Roberge, author of The Cost of Living.Â
âKitchens of the Great Midwest is a big-hearted, funny, and class-transcending pleasure. Itâs also both a structural and empathetic tour de force, stepping across worlds in the American midwest, and demonstrating with an enviable tenderness and ingenuity the tug of war between our freedom to pursue our passions and our obligations to those we love.ââJim Shepard, author of Project X and National Book Award finalist Like Youâd Understand, AnywayÂ
âFrom the quite literally burning passions of a lonely eleven-year-old girl with an exceptional palate, to the ethical dilemmas behind a batch of Blue Ribbon Peanut Butter Bars, J. Ryan Stradal writes with a special kind of meticulous tendernessâmissing nothing and accepting everything. A superbly gratifying debut.ââMeg Howrey, author of The Craneâs Dance
