{"product_id":"choral-society-by-prue-leith","title":"Choral Society by Prue Leith","description":"\u003cp\u003eThree single women in their fifties meet when they join a choir. Lucy, recently widowed, is a cook and food journalist; Joanna, a successful business woman, never married; Rebecca is a divorced interior decorator. Each of the women is at a crossroads and they quickly form a bond.\u003cbr\u003eThe trio decide to combine their talents to restore a crumbling pile in Cornwall and turn it into a cookery school and spa. The project brings its own conflicts, both professional and personal. The novel's themes touch on the sustaining power of female friendship and how a woman copes with mid life and onwards.\u003cbr\u003ePrue's narrative voice is warm, witty, wise, very accessible. Her characters are sympathetic and engaging: very different women but each with demons to face as she gets older and confronts a future without - perhaps - a man in it. Her knowledge of food and business adds detail and zest, enriching an already compelling tale.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Book Express","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43835096072266,"sku":"5205aw","price":8.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/9101\/8826\/files\/5205aw.jpg?v=1784783173","url":"https:\/\/www.bookexpress.nz\/products\/choral-society-by-prue-leith","provider":"Book Express","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
