Book description:
Pour yourself a glass of tea with lemon, cut a slice of cheesecake, and settle down with this funny, warm, angst-ridden novel. Share the tea and cake with a group of Polish-Jewish eccentrics, and see if you can get them to say what really happened in Poland during the war.
Advise Miriam on the wisdom of digging into the past. Wag your finger at her younger sister Felunia as she kvetches about her solid worthy husband and thinks about a more exciting sex life. Scream at them when they ignore your advice. In the end they may tell you more about how to handle relationships than you can tell them.

If you want to read about love, war, family, fidelity, intimacy and how to stop getting those flabby bits under your arms, "The Front of the Family" is just the book for you.

A book for the book buffet at the Loughborough unconvention.

I'm finally getting around to journalling the books I brought home from UnCon. Sorry for the delay.
