An Enlightening Quiche by Eva PascoMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
A Tapestry of Culture, History, and Blue Ribbon Quiche
For a deep, warm read, settle in with a cup of cafetière a piston and a creamy slice of hot quiche, and retreat to the inner sanctum of Eva Pasco’s Proustian search for the meaning of family in the Rhode Island mill town of Beauchemins.
Weaving together synchronicity and history, karma and chance, Pasco reveals the breathtaking story of two women living in a tightly knit French Canadian community – Augusta, a Canuck native and Lindsay, a journalist from Cambridge, Mass. As Lindsay probes the captivating culture of Beauchemins, both women explore their roots and make discoveries that change their lives forever.
An Enlightening Quiche is a study in both the details of what makes a life story, and the big picture of how our lives are affected by those around us. A non-judgmental look at what lies beneath the surface, this first-person narrative embraces cultural differences and varied historical timelines to seek the ties that bind us together as one human race.
