Marrying the Ketchups

Viac o knihe

An irresistible comedy of manners about three generations of a Chicago restaurant family, exploring the private jokes, ancient grudges, broken hearts, and deep love that bind them. The Sullivan family holds three truths: the Chicago Cubs will always be underdogs, historical progress is inevitable, and their grandfather Bud, founder of JP Sullivan's, makes the best burgers in Oak Park. However, when the Cubs win the World Series, Trump is elected president, and Bud passes away within three months, the family begins to question everything they believe. Gretchen, the lead singer of a '90s cover band, wonders if she’s too old to chase her dreams. Jane, her older sister, suspects her fitness-obsessed husband isn’t always "working late." Meanwhile, Teddy, their steadfast cousin, grapples with heartbreak as his ex continues to show up at the restaurant where he works. With the world feeling upside down and strong cocktails flowing, how can they make the right choices? Outrageously funny and astutely insightful, this tale serves as a delicious confection from one of our most beloved authors.
