Dinner with Edward : the story of a remarkable friendship / Isabel Vincent. by Vincent, Isabel, 1965- Algonquin Books of Chapel Hill, 2016. Call #: 158.1 V771d Subjects Vincent, Isabel, 1965- -- Friends and associates.   Self-actualization (Psychology)   Friendship -- Psychological aspects.   Women authors, American -- New York (State) -- New York -- Biography.   Dinners and dining -- New York (State) -- New York.   New York (N.Y.) -- Biography. ISBN:  9781616204228 (hc.) 1616204222 (hc.) Edition:  1st ed. Description:  213 p. ; 19 cm. Notes:  "Published simultaneously in Canada by Thomas Allen & Son Limited"--T.p. verso. Summary:  "When Isabel meets Edward, both are at a crossroads: he wants to follow his late wife to the grave, and she is ready to give up on love. Thinking she is merely helping out her friend, Edward's daughter--who lives far away and asked her to check in on her nonagenarian dad in New York--Isabel has no idea that the man in the kitchen baking the sublime roast chicken and light-as-air apricot souffl©♭ will end up changing her life. As Edward and Isabel meet weekly for the glorious dinners that Edward prepares, he shares so much more than his recipes for apple galette or the perfect martini, or even his tips for deboning poultry. Edward is teaching Isabel the luxury of slowing down and taking the time to think through everything she does, to deconstruct her own life, cutting it back to the bone and examining the guts, no matter how messy that proves to be. Dinner with Edward is a book about sorrow and joy, love and nourishment, and about how dinner with a friend can, in the words of M.F.K. Fisher, 'sustain us against the hungers of the world'."--From publisher. Genre:  Memoirs.
