Book Synopsis Francesca's Kitchen by : Peter Pezzelli
Download or read book Francesca's Kitchen written by Peter Pezzelli and published by Kensington. This book was released on 2016-03-29 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one writes about Italian-American families with the humor, warmth, and heart of Peter Pezzelli. With Francesca's Kitchen, he delivers a winning novel about how much we need the closeness of family--even if we don't know it. Where There's Food, There's Family For years, Francesca Campanile was the queen of her home. Standing in her Rhode Island kitchen, Francesca dispensed advice as liberally as she did the garlic, arguing nonstop with her son and two daughters. It was wonderful. But now, her children and their children have moved away. And for the widowed Francesca, no longer having a family around to pester, annoy, guide, love, and, of course, cook for, makes her feel useless. What she needs is another family who needs her, and when she sees Loretta Simmons's ad in the Providence paper for a part-time nanny, she's sure she's found it. All the single mom wants is someone to fill in for a few hours a day. But it's obvious to Francesca that Loretta and her kids need a lot more. Loretta's struggling to make ends meet. Every man she brings home is a disaster. And her kids could definitely use some guidance--and a little lasagna, frankly. It's time for Francesca to work her magic…and the best place to start is the kitchen. Funny and moving, with a heroine to adore, Francesca's Kitchen is a delicious story about sharing love, life, advice, and, above all, food. "Home cooking, good pasta, and traditional family values conquer all in this amusing and touching story." --Publishers Weekly
Book Synopsis Saving Francesca by : Melina Marchetta
Download or read book Saving Francesca written by Melina Marchetta and published by Knopf Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before there was Eleanor and Park, there was Francesca and Will. A compelling story of romance, family, and friendship, with humor and heart, perfect for fans of If I Stay, The Spectacular Now, and Looking for Alaska. Francesca is stuck at St. Sebastian’s, a boys' school that pretends it's coed by giving the girls their own bathroom. Her only female companions are an ultra-feminist, a rumored slut, and an impossibly dorky accordion player. The boys are no better, from Thomas, who specializes in musical burping, to Will, the perpetually frowning, smug moron that Francesca can't seem to stop thinking about. Then there's Francesca's mother, who always thinks she knows what's best for Francesca—until she is suddenly stricken with acute depression, leaving Francesca lost, alone, and without an inkling of who she really is. Simultaneously humorous, poignant, and impossible to put down, this is the story of a girl who must summon the strength to save her family, her social life, and—hardest of all—herself. Melina Marchetta is the Printz-winning author of Jellicoe Road, as well as Looking for Alibrandi and Finnikin of the Rock.
Book Synopsis That Time I Loved You: Stories by : Carrianne Leung
Download or read book That Time I Loved You: Stories written by Carrianne Leung and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2019-02-26 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Danuta Gleed Literary Award (Writers’ Union of Canada) An Amazon Best Book of the Month (Literature & Fiction) In this exquisite American debut, Carrianne Leung evokes the legacies of Cheever and Munro with a haunting depiction of 1970s suburbia. In her “compact gem of a collection” (Globe & Mail), Carrianne Leung enlivens a singular group of characters sharing a shiny new subdivision in 1970s Toronto. Marilyn greets new neighbors with fresh-baked cookies before she starts stealing from them. Stay-at-home-wife Francesca believes passion is just one yard away, only in the arms of another man. And Darren doesn’t understand why his mother insists he keep his head down, even though he gets good grades like his white friends. When a series of inexplicable suicides begin to haunt their community, no one is more fascinated by the terrible phenomenon than young June. The daughter of Chinese immigrants, she sits hawk-eyed at the center, bearing witness to the truth behind pulled curtains: the affairs, the racism, the hidden abuses. Leung bursts onto the American literary stage with prose remarkably attuned to the tenuous, and perhaps deceptive, idea of happiness among these picket-fenced lives.

Download or read book The Complete Saki written by Saki and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1998-05-01 with total page 964 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The complete works of one of England's greatest Edwardian writers Saki is perhaps the most graceful spokesman for England's 'Golden Afternoon' - the slow and peaceful years before the First World War. Although, like so many of his generation, he died tragically young, in action on the Western Front, his reputation as a writer continued to grow long after his death. His work is humorous, satiric, supernatural, and macabre, highly individual, full of eccentric wit and unconventional situations. With his great gift as a social satirist of his contemporary upper-class Edwardian world, Saki is one of the few undisputed English masters of the short story and one of the great writers of a bygone era. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
Book Synopsis The Pony Question by : Jackie Merchant
Download or read book The Pony Question written by Jackie Merchant and published by Walker Books Australia. This book was released on 2020-07-01 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Facts and Magic, that’s how Essie thinks of the differences between she and her Mum, and yet they rub along happily together, living in their short country village street and spending their weekends travelling across the country side to clearing sales and second hand shops looking for furniture for her mum to restore in her own flamboyant Francesca Furniture style. Life has a gentle ebb and flow. But Essie has no way of knowing that everything is about to change on the morning she and Francesca drive into the big rural property and tromp through the dew and accidentally buy, with the fall of the Auctioneers hammer, not the lounge they were after, but a pony. And not just any pony, but possibly the saddest, skinniest pony ever seen, and one that is hiding a couple of secrets, one in particular that some bad people are very determined to keep quiet. Essie discovers that something she never even dreamed of, because it seemed so impossible, a pony of her own, is suddenly within her grasp and standing in her car port. But there is a long road ahead, the pony is weak and has determined enemies whose fates are tied up with hers, so they will not only have to nurse her back to health, but also keep her out of the hands of those so desperate to get her. As the pony’s secrets come to light and her tale unfolds, it will take facts and magic, as well as the ingenuity of the people of the little street, a whole lot of growing up for Essie, and the realisation that love doesn’t mean ownership, to keep the pony safe and bring her home.
