Aftertaste: A Novel in Five Courses

Meredith Mileti’s debut novel serves up a satisfying and delicious story of rebuilding a life after everything is suddenly and cruelly taken away … a keenly observed novel that is, in part, a comedy of manners… There are scores of wonderful scenes of Mira either cooking up a storm or eating her way through Pittsburgh from the perfect biscotti at Bruno’s Bakery, to Italian sausages and cheese from The Pennsylvania Macaroni Factory to oversized sandwiches at Primanti Brothers (it’s enough to make you want to hop on the next plane to Pittsburgh)… Meredith Mileti’s debut novel is as thoughtful and poignant as it is wickedly funny. It is one to savor — recipes included. New York Journal of Books
