THE EXHIBITIONIST, by Charlotte Mendelson“I prefer stories about squalor,” J.D. Esmé would have gone nuts for “The Exhibitionist,” the fifth novel by the English writer Charlotte Mendelson, which was longlisted for the Women’s Prize for Fiction in 2022. Set in sophisticated if not exactly moneyed quarters of London, with excursions to Edinburgh, it’s a model of tightly controlled domestic chaos. Google the word “exhibitionist” and you will surface some unsavory porn sites. There’s a big party planned, with a “full Mediterrfusion tasting menu” and early foreboding that it will not go well.

THE SPACE that the novelist Charlotte Mendelson cooks in these days isn’t her ideal. That was her last kitchen. Little potted things crowd even the windowsill by her desk, where she is working on her sixth novel and planning the U.S. launch of her much-lauded last, “The Exhibitionist” (St. Martin’s Press, July 4). She took a break, though, to talk about what she’s currently cooking and growing. Right now, she said, “it’s all about my red Russian kale.”
