Download or read book Mimi Malloy At Last written by Julia MacDonnell and published by Picador. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet Mimi Malloy: A daughter of the Great Depression, Mimi was born into an Irish-Catholic brood of seven, and she has done her best to raise six beautiful daughters of her own. Now they're grown, and Mimi, a divorcée, is unexpectedly retired. But she takes solace in the comforts of her new life: her apartment in the heart of Quincy, the occasional True Blue cigarette, and evenings with Frank Sinatra on the stereo and a highball in her hand. Yet her phone is arguably the busiest in greater Boston—it rings "Day In, Day Out," as Ol' Blue Eyes would say. Her surviving sisters love to gab about their girlhood, while her eldest daughter, Cassandra, calls every morning to preach the gospel of assisted living. And when an MRI reveals that Mimi's brain is filled with black spots—areas of atrophy, her doctor says—it looks like she's destined to spend her days in "one of those storage facilities for unwanted antiques." Mimi knows her mind is (more or less) as sharp as ever, and she won't go down without a fight. Yet as she prepares to take her stand, she stumbles upon an old pendant of her mother's and, slowly, her memory starts to return—specifically, recollections of a shocking and painful childhood, including her sister who was sent away to Ireland and the wicked stepmother she swore to forget. Out of the ashes of Mimi's deeply troubled history, Julia MacDonnell gives us a redemptive story of the family bonds that break us and remake us. Mimi Malloy, At Last! is an unforgettable novel, alive with humor, unexpected romance, and the magic of hard-earned insight: a poignant reminder that it's never too late to fall in love and that one can always come of age a second time.
Download or read book Family and Friends written by Anita Brookner and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-08-08 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an ambitious departure from her usual form, Anita Brookner expands her canvas in Family and Friends to create a richly textured novel about the life of a wealthy Jewish family in London, focusing on the generation that came to maturity between the two World Wars. Presiding over the Dorn household is the formidable Sofka, an elegant and circumspect widow who watches as her four children find their way into adulthood. Frederick, the sybaritic eldest son, escapes to the comforts of the Riviera while stern, dutiful Alfred runs the family business and burns with unrealized longings; Betty—pleasure-loving, vain, and selfish—makes her ambitious way from Paris to Hollywood, leaving her dreamy, passive sister Mimi to languish at home. A brilliant social novel of lost innocence and the complex nature of family bonds, Family and Friends meticulously portrays the emotional cost of everyday life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three friends—challenged with marriage, work, children, and self-doubt—all fall for the same man. The handsome, charming, wealthy, and recently divorced Mack Taylor returns to Cape Cod at the beginning of the summer season after years away and shakes up several lives. It all begins with an innocent Facebook friend request to Sadie from Mack. Mack is coming back to the Cape to open a resort. Having once dated him, Sadie feels she has dibs on a renewed friendship. But she soon realizes she has competition from her best friends: Charlotte, the charismatic former model, and Ada, the smart and coy beauty. All the women are at crossroads in their lives, so Mack’s laid-back personality and attention is alluring and magnetic. But are they willing to gamble their marriages and families for a second chance at love? And will their friendships survive? Alexandra Slater depicts Cape Cod sensuously, and the glittering beaches, boats, golf clubs, summer soirées, and fancy cocktails make for a lingering and memorable setting that readers will find irresistible. Yet, equally relatable to readers is the fact that even with all their luxuries, the women of Friends with Boats are still searching for something more. Mack’s return to the Cape is a catalyst for self-discovery and reinvention. Filled with humor, drama, sex, and romance, Friends with Boats is the perfect beach read. Alexandra Slater is an award-winning journalist and writer. She graduated from Columbia University and is a former actress and comedian with Upright Citizens Brigade. She splits her time between Boston and Cleveland with her husband, their children, and three dogs.
