"A new novel about an underground food community by the author of Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore"-- A software engineer at General Dexterity, a San Francisco robotics company with world-changing ambitions, Lois Clary codes all day and collapses at night, her human contact limited to the two brothers who run the neighborhood hole-in-the-wall from which she orders dinner every evening. When the brothers have Visa issues, they have one last delivery for Lois: their culture, the sourdough starter used to bake their bread. She must keep it alive, they tell her-- and learn to bake with it. Soon Lois is providing loaves to the General Dexterity cafeteria, then the farmer's market, and a whole new world opens up-- including a secret market that aims to fuse food and technology.… (mehr)

Delightful. Full of love and play and mysticism.

And microbes. ( )

Utterly delightful and deeply readable! I loved Lois's adventures with her sourdough starter and the Marrow Market; it's so weird at times but also somehow very relatable. This book also prompted me to look up various food processes, places, and people, and I ended up going down several Google rabbit holes of San Francisco farmers markets and cheese cultures and a bunch of chefs - there was so much in "Sourdough" to take in but it was never overwhelming, just a total literary feast! I think Lois (much like Clay in "Mr. Penumbra") was the perfect main character for this story and I'd love to see more of her. (Speaking of Clay, I got a dopey grin out of his New Bagel cameo)

Also, I now have the problem of having read both of Robin Sloan's novels, his short stories, the novella, and even his tap-to-read Fish app...and there's nothing left?? I can't WAIT to see what he comes up with next! ( )

This one goes fast! Started last night and finished today!

Lois is a young computer programmer who accidentally befriends the owner of a peculiar and wonderful sourdough bread starter. When she takes ownership of the starter her life changes is mysterious ways. From a robot factory to an underground farmer’s market’s wise old goat farmer this story is like a modern fairytale warning us away from things too good to be true or that we don’t understand.

I fell like this book has no middle ground, you’ll either love it or hate it. ( )

A fun light read. Sloan put a lot of good pieces together, and he seemed to tie everything back together plot wise, but the Sourdough didn't give me that satisfying full stomach. ( )

I liked it. 4 stars may be a bit too much, but since GR doesn't do half stars, I'm rounding up.
I had expected and hoped that this would be a bit more cosy, with all the bread baking and such. It did have its moments, but there was also something colder and at times a bit creepy about it, especially towards the end. The whole thing with the lembas felt a bit much to me.
I liked some of the tech jokes, although it was a bit artificial at times. I liked the Lois club. I liked the spicy soup guys and the bread.
I guess there were a whole lot of messages that someone who felt like doing a serious review could talk about, technology vs tradition, ambition, etc. But I'm just writing down a few notes to help me remember, so I'll leave that to someone else... ( )

It would have been nutritive gel for dinner, same as always, if I had not discovered stuck to my apartment's front door a paper menu advertising the newly expanded delivery service of a neighborhood restaurant.
