Jacelyn Cane's mom and dad liked their martinis dry: straight gin on the rocks with a dab of vermouth and a hint of water - and they liked them often. They also liked to party; they danced, socialized, and drank - they were good at all three. Sometimes this behaviour led to humorous situations - antics in the pool, at the club, the cottage or in the car, for example. Other times, however, the experiences were not so funny - family fights and times of neglect, trauma, and abuse. By weaving together a series of episodes that take the reader to light and dark places, author Jacelyn Cane tells a poignant cautionary tale for anyone affected by alcoholism and/or family struggles. The author is using a pseudonym and most of the names in the book have been changed to protect people's identities. "Mom and Dad's Martinis: A Memoir" is a great read for anyone who has experienced a childhood mixed with joy as well as sorrow. It is a story of love, acceptance, forgiveness, and hope.

You can pick your friends, but not your family is the motto that estranged sisters Jessie and Nicole have lived by for most of their adult lives. And until now, it seemed to be working out just fine with the Atlantic Ocean keeping a safe distance between them.When their mother dies and her attorney reads the will, the sisters are handed some surprises, not the least of which is finding that Mom had millions tucked away - and they are about to inherit every penny of it.However that vast ocean will shrink to just a few steps down the hall when the sisters find out what their Mom's last wish was - and it was nothing that the sisters had in their daily planners. Yup, Moms are like that. Always gotta have the last word. To gain their inheritance, the sisters must move in together for a year and get to know each other. Easy enough, but Mom's not finished yet. She wants her daughters to learn a few "life lessons" during that year. Things she forgot to teach them while she was alive. And the truth is, its way more fun to watch this kind of stuff when your dead and you have nothing to do anyway. Armed with a manila envelope of letters left by their late Mother, along with the recipe for the best peach martinis in all of South Carolina, the sisters agree to do just that. Get to know each other. As sisters. Reluctantly, they move into their late Grandmother's beach house on Pawley's Island for one year to learn to be sisters. For Mom....and for the eight million they're about to inherit. As they try to adapt to their new lives, Jessie and Nicole find out more secrets about their mother - and about each other. As they open a new envelope each month, they say a silent prayer of thanks for that peach martini recipe. Can Nicole give up her luxurious London life to stay in a tiny beach house for a year? Can Jessica keep from throwing her sister off the balcony every time Nicole turns into a drama queen?And can either of them figure out what in the hell their mother was thinking when she left them a package of little white envelopes that will send them doing everything from searching for their inner goddess to camping in the woods.

This second edition of Lucky Strikes and a Three Martini Lunch: Thinking About Television’s Mad Men explores the attributes of the AMC series that allow it to be such a popular and vital contribution to contemporary cultural discourse. Set in the 1960s in New York, the Emmy and Peabody-winning series follows the competitive, seductive, and oftentimes ruthless lives of the men and women of Madison Avenue’s advertising agencies. Many alluring and captivating qualities constitute the Mad Men experience: the way it evokes nostalgia, even from those who did not live in the era being portrayed; its interrogations of identities, and how these explorations of the past illuminate viewers’ concepts of the present; the compelling (and often heartbreaking) relationships between characters trying to make their way in an ever-changing and increasingly complex world; and the titillation of the characters’ discovery of the power of mass-mediated communication and its abilities to allow learning, information sharing, manipulation, and connection, not to mention how their journeys reflect our own in contemporary society. The essays collected in this volume speak to both fans of the show who may not typically embrace theory and criticism, as well as those who do. Additionally, this version was designed with educators in mind. It still includes engaging essays that critically analyze the show from a multitude of perspectives, but now they are organized in way to facilitate easy use in the classroom. This structure allows educators to simply construct and conduct a course using this book as a primary textbook and organize the course according to the way it is laid out. Each chapter provides any type of reader with the opportunity to think about and enjoy the show even after it is no longer on the air.

A birch tree grows tall and arabesque in the front yard of Nancy Chadwick’s childhood home.

Peter Leroy constructs a plausible adult life for his grade school chum Matthew Barber, now living in Boston, where he is vice-president of a toy company by day, but becomes Bertram W. Beath, restaurant reviewer, when the sun goes down. Reservations Recommended is a satire of the critical mind; a dark commentary on contemporary culture; a story of midlife crisis; a morality play; and a book that matches bleakness against humor, seasoned throughout with B. W. Beath's hilariously acid reviews. We watch as Matthew Barber descends from a self-protective superiority into a species of madness, and into the dark night of the soul. "A brilliant satire." LA Life "A merciless sendup of contemporary American pretensions.' Janice Harayda, Cleveland Plain Dealer "Wonderfully readable . . . touching and intelligent." Richard Gehr, The Village Voice
