Love and Biology at the Center of the Universe
Upon learning that her college sweetheart husband has been seeing another woman, Mira Serafino’s once perfect world is shattered and she wants no one, least of all her big Italian family, to know. She takes off—with no destination and little money—heading north until her car breaks down in Seattle. There she takes a job at the offbeat Coffee Shop at the Center of the Universe, where she’ll experience a terrifying but invigorating freedom, and meet someone she’ll come to love: the new Mira. “[A] wry and funny portrait.”
—Diana Loevy, author of The Book

“Smart, funny, and endearing…one terrific read!”
—Garth Stein, author of The Art of Racing in the Rain

“Flawless storytelling make[s] this a book to remember.”
—Karen White, author of The Memory of Water
