Elizabeth Wellington Rollins: The Three Graces of Pearl Street, Gebunden

Klappentext

"A story about what it means to take care of and love one another, whether family, community, or perhaps the hardest and most important, ourselves. I loved it." ---Heather Aimee O'Neill, national bestselling author of The Irish Goodbye In this wise and warm debut novel, an Italian American grandmother, daughter, and granddaughter find their lives---and their secrets---colliding when, after years apart, they come to live under the same roof.

Graziella, the ninety-six-year-old matriarch of this Italian American family, spends her days running not only her family but her parish's food kitchen, keeping everyone fed in their working-class New York neighborhood. Her daughter, Grace, is feeling uninspired at her job, battling the throes of menopause, and most urgently, trying to stay afloat amidst her impending divorce. Ella, granddaughter of Graziella and daughter to Grace, is stuck in limbo, tired of trying to defend her vegan diet and anti-capitalistic lifestyle, while still wanting to do something important with her life.

Uplifting and emotionally layered, The Three Graces of Pearl Street explores the intricacies of what it means to balance tradition with modernity, to celebrate moments of ordinary grace, and to embrace the most authentic version of yourself.
