{"product_id":"female-nomad-and-friends-rita-golden-gelman-9780307588012","title":"Female Nomad and Friends: Tales of Breaking Free and Breaking Bread Around the World","description":"In 1987, Rita, newly divorced, set out to live her dream. She sold all her possessions and became a nomad. She wrote a book about her ongoing journey and, in 2001, insisted on putting her personal e-mail address in the last chapter--against all advice. It turned out to be a fortuitous decision. She has met thousands of readers, stayed in their homes, and sat around kitchen tables sharing stories and food and laughter. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this essay collection, Gelman includes her own further adventures, as well as those of writers and readers telling tales of the shared humanity they experienced in their travels. The stories are funny and sad, poignant and tender, familiar and bizarre. They will make you laugh and cry and maybe even send you off on your own adventure. Also included are fabulous international recipes such as vegetarian dolmades (stuffed grape leaves), chiles en nogada (stuffed poblano chiles topped with a white cream sauce with walnuts and a sprinkle of pomegranate seeds), and ho mok (an extraordinary fish-coconut custard from Thailand). Happy reading--and bon app tit, selamat makan, buen provecho\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rita Golden Gelman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0307588017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780307588012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Crown Publishing Group (NY)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.96h x 6.76w x 0.92d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2010","brand":"Rita Golden Gelman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981548126463,"sku":"9780307588012","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_aab4c523-2fc8-416b-8331-610462e9f7e0.jpg?v=1683256215","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/female-nomad-and-friends-rita-golden-gelman-9780307588012","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
