In this book, the author uses food, particularly cheesecake and even more particularly, an ancient 'cheesecake' recipe from Cato, to illustrate the changes happening in a NYC neighborhood. The cheesecake metaphor is a reflection on authenticity and ownership. And the whole book is a reflection on gentrification and capitalism.
It just didn't completely come together for me. I absolutely get what the author was trying to do, but it felt a little disjointed, and I never really got interested in the characters. Some of the characters themselves are super interesting, so how that works, I don't exactly know.
