People magazine included The Restaurant Criticâs Wife on their Great New Fiction list and hailed it as âthoroughly entertaining.â
Lila Soto has a masterâs degree thatâs gathering dust, a work-obsessed husband, two kids, and lots of questions about how exactly she ended up here.
In their new city of Philadelphia, Lilaâs husband, Sam, takes his job as a restaurant critic a little too seriously. To protect his professional credibility, heâs determined to remain anonymous. Soon his preoccupation with anonymity takes over their lives as he tries to limit the familyâs contact with anyone who might have ties to the foodie world. Meanwhile, Lila craves adult conversation and some relief from the constraints of her homemaker role. With her patience wearing thin, she begins to question everything: her decision to get pregnant again, her break from her career, her marriageâeven if leaving her ex-boyfriend was the right thing to do. As Sam becomes more and more fixated on keeping his identity secret, Lila begins to wonder if her own identity has completely disappearedâand what it will take to get it back.
