The novel focuses a woman working in Silicon Valley who is given an unusual sourdough starter that transforms her life. It is difficult to classify in that it is neither a eutopia or dystopia as such but has episodes or fragments of each throughout. For an article on the novel and utopia, see Justin Nordstrom, \“\‘Food Is History of the Deepest Kind\’: Eating and Utopia in Sloan\’s Sourdough and Sargent\’s \‘The American Cockaigne\’.\” Utopian Studies 31.2 (2020): 303-13.
