{"product_id":"feasting-season-nancy-coons-9781565125193","title":"Feasting Season","description":"Meg Parker, an American travel-book writer, lives in the Lorraine countryside with her two small children and a neglectful husband. Domestic life is beginning to take its toll until Meg is offered her dream assignment: to write a guidebook about French history. Unfortunately, there is a catch. Jean-Jacques, a scruffy and imperious photographer, has been assigned to the project. As the dueling pair visits each region in search of the past, what they find is the colorful, food-filled present--the festive bullfights in the Camargue, the sacred gypsy pilgrimage at Stes-Maries-de-la-Mer, the pictographs and lightning storms of Mount Bégo. And over the course of mouthwatering meals--of lamb daube, paella and rosé, bull steak and anchioade, Brebis and strawberries--their antagonistic collaboration turns into a fiery love affair. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Meg's notions about history--about what we preserve and how we accept the new--evolve, and in the end, she must reconcile her two lives and decide what to hold on to, and what to let go.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nancy Coons\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1565125193\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781565125193\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Algonquin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/13\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 382\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.87lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.24h x 7.90w x 1.02d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/16\/2007 pg. 28\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2007 pg. 465\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2007 pg. 20","brand":"Nancy Coons","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44124879290623,"sku":"9781565125193","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_340436ab-49af-44d3-9b6a-e50f1286af13.jpg?v=1687439356","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/feasting-season-nancy-coons-9781565125193","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
