...Yorker, is one of the great American food writers. This summer, working three jobs to make rent and reduced to herbivory, I would open up “Home Cooking,” Colwin’s masterpiece. My personal favorite text over the summer was a chapter analyzing the intricacies of creating the perfect fried chicken. Colwin expounds on her own time as a starving student in Manhattan and as I re-read the familiar pages, I had an epiphany.

...Goethe’s “The Sorrows of Young Werther,” all the way up to the discussion of one of the characters’ (totally unnecessary) attempt at suicide. While it is easy to sympathize with Roger and Bethany at first, with each passing chapter they seem that much further beyond the threshold of salvation. The characters’ meditations on death are harrowing and bear little fruit, and the frame through which we see “Glove Pond” play out simply serves to tread ground that these depressing characters have already...
