Meg Wolitzer presents two favorite Selected Shorts works in which food and nourishment figure both literally and symbolically. The narrator of Haruki Murakami’s “The Year of Spaghetti” seems to be just sharing pasta recipes, but it’s the recipe for assuaging loneliness that may elude him.

We also share a discussion of this work by the mother-daughter book club organized by our frequent reader Rita Wolf and her daughter Anjeli.
