SUMMARY:Elizabeth Wellington Rollins | The Three Graces
DESCRIPTION:The Yankee Bookshop and Norman Williams Public Library invite you to celebrate the publication of Elizabeth Wellington Rollins‘ debut novel\, The Three Graces of Pearl Street. We’ll gather at the Town Hall Theater on Thursday\, September 3\, at 7 pm to applaud this local author. \nThe Three Graces of Pearl Street paints a wise and warm portrait of an Italian American grandmother\, daughter\, and granddaughter all named after the Roman myth of the Three Graces. They find their lives – and their secrets – colliding when\, after years apart\, they come to live under the same roof. \nGraziella\, a ninety-six-year-old former nun\, spends her days running the parish’s food kitchen\, convinced it is her responsibility to keep everyone fed in their working-class New York neighborhood. Her daughter\, Grace\, a respected psychology professor\, appears accomplished and composed\, yet finds herself unmoored as her personal life falters. Ella – Graziella’s granddaughter and Grace’s daughter – is weary of defending her vegan diet and anti-capitalistic lifestyle; blind to her own brilliance\, she longs\, above all\, for a place to belong. Living together again\, the three Graces reckon with the distances that have shaped them\, and with what it means\, at last\, to be fully known. \n“A stunning debut. An intergenerational story full of the complexities of family life that will surprise and inspire you at every turn.” – Adriana Trigiani\, New York Times bestselling author \nElizabeth Wellington Rollins is a writer and award-winning copywriter. She grew up outside New York City and graduated from Davidson College. Her work has appeared in Condé Nast Traveler\, The Week\, Travel + Leisure\, and Vogue. Liz lives just a few miles from the Woodstock Green with her family. Her book is\, in part\, a love letter to her Italian maternal lineage\, as well as the place that raised her\, her parents\, and three grandparents. \nPlease visit the Yankee Bookshop (or their website) before September 1 for details about receiving a gift – including a small cookbook with recipes from the novel – when you pre-order The Three Graces of Pearl Street.
