Sourdough

Robin Sloan’s Sourdough is a warm, quirky story about Lois Clary, a burned-out software engineer who inherits a mysterious bread starter that changes her life. What begins as casual baking turns into a strange adventure through San Francisco’s underground food scene, where technology and fermentation mix in surprising ways.

Funny, thoughtful, and a little magical, Sourdough is really about finding joy and meaning in the small, creative things that keep us human. It’s a light, satisfying read—like a fresh loaf straight from the oven
