Readers will be pleased to find modern takes on traditional ingredients, such as Beef Tenderloin Stuffed with Figs and Apricots, or Shrimp with Ouzo and Chilies. Over half of the recipes are vegetarian-this is real Greek cooking. Filled with tips, variations, and make-ahead suggestions, this book even offers 12 complete menu ideas which will assist a cook in putting together a meal from start to finish. Heartwarming tales of how the recipes came to be staple dishes in the three sisters' homes are shared throughout. The anecdotes are enhanced by a storybook of black and white photographs that document the family rituals of a modern Greek-Canadian household. This cookbook invites the reader to create rituals around their own dinner table. It reminds the reader that food is not just a means for survival; it is a chance to pause with family and friends and connect with loved ones. Book

An astonishing first novel that traces the lives of a Scottish family over a decade as they confront the joys and longings, fulfillments and betrayals of love in all its guises. In June of 1989 Paul McLeod, a newspaper publisher and recent widower, travels to Greece, where he falls for a young American artist and reflects on the complicated truth about his marriage. . ..Six years later, again in June, Paul's death draws his three grown sons and their families back to their ancestral home. Fenno, the eldest, a wry, introspective gay man, narrates the events of this unforeseen reunion. Far from his straitlaced expatriate life as a bookseller in Greenwich Village, Fenno is stunned by a series of revelations that threaten his carefully crafted defenses. . .. Four years farther on, in yet another June, a chance meeting on the Long Island shore brings Fenno together with Fern Olitsky, the artist who once captivated his father. Now pregnant, Fern must weigh her guilt about the past against her wishes for the future and decide what family means to her. In prose rich with compassion and wit, Three Junes paints a haunting portrait of love's redemptive powers. Book
