As the youngest child of a traditional Italian-Catholic immigrant family, Monica learns the intimacy of the dinner table and the ritual of meals, along with the requirements of conformity both at the table and in life. Monica is thirteen when her mother is diagnosed with breast cancer and undergoes a mastectomy. When her mother dies three years later, Monica considers the existence of her own breasts and her emerging sexuality in the context of grief and the disintegration of her sense of family. As Monica becomes an adult, she discovers a part of her self that rebels against the rigours of her traditional upbringing. And as the layers of her sexuality are revealed she begins to understand that like herbs infusing a sauce with flavour; her differences add a delicious complexity to her life. But in coming to terms with her place in the margins of the margins, Monica must also face the challenge of coming out while living in a small town, years before same-sex marriage and amendments to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms created safer spaces for queers. Through risk, courage and heartbreak, she ultimately redefines and recreates family and identity according to her own alternative vision."-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Antipasti: Tongue ; Baby octopus ; Thirst ; Halved fruit ; Raw ; Ice cube ; Nutritional torture ; Green peas ; Nut ; Steak fat ; Both ; Carpaccio ; Orange peel ; Cheat ; Barbecue ; Echolocation ; Zest -- Primi: The orchard ; Beached ; Flesh ; Secret ingredients ; Water ; Salad ; Roar ; Water closet ; Nearly the first ; Opening up ; Boreal ; Rice-cooker porridge ; Two flavours ; Years ago, it was Dickie Dee -- Secondi e contorni: Extreme hospitality ; Pots and pans ; CaffeÌ latte ; Fermenti lattici ; Remedies ; The code ; Da Peppe ; Parmiggiano ; The garden -- Frutti e formaggi: The pasta machine ; Finocchio ; Feeding ; Weather ; Mushrooms and memory ; Breaking bread ; Uovo sbattutuo ; Recipe ; December 7, 8:15 A.M. ; Swallowing pennies. 600 10 $a Meneghetti, Monica, $d 1967- 600 10 $a Meneghetti, Monica, $d 1967- $x Family. 650 0 $a Lesbians $z Canada $v Biography. 650 0 $a Catholic gays $z Canada $v Biography. 650 0 $a Coming out (Sexual orientation) $z Canada $v Case studies. 650 0 $a Gastronomy $z Canada. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20180710014312.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=63243244840711E89478B85797128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
