Both her parents threw open their rambling house in Portland, Oregon, to long-term visitors and unusual guests in need of a place to stay. Years later, after college and after her parents' separation, Milholland returned home. There, she joined her brother and his housemates--an eccentric group of stop-motion animators and accomplished cooks--in furthering the experiment of communal living into a new generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGroup Living and Other Recipes \u003c\/i\u003etells the story of the residents of the Holman House--of transcendent meals and ecstatic parties, of colorful characters coming together in moments of deep tenderness and inevitable irritation, of a shared life that is appealing, humorous, confounding, and, just maybe, utopian--with a wider exploration of group living as a way of life. From spending time at her aunt and uncle's intentional community in Washington State to finding her footing in the kitchen as a student in Japan to mushroom hunting in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, Milholland offers an expansive and vibrant reevaluation of the structures at the very center of our lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThoughtful, quirky, candid, and wise, \u003ci\u003eGroup Living and Other Recipes\u003c\/i\u003e introduces a gifted memoirist and thinker, making a convincing case that \"\u003ci\u003enow\u003c\/i\u003e is always the right time to reimagine home and family.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Spiegel \u0026 Grau","offers":[{"title":"Group Living and Other Recipes: A Memoir | Lola Milholland | Hardcover | 9781954118577 | New | Memoir 1622547","offer_id":50694112215298,"sku":"1622547","price":38.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/71POb5D_oKL.jpg?v=1791543975","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/group-living-and-other-recipes-a-memoir","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
