{"product_id":"leith-prue-the-choral-society-9781849160131","title":"The Choral Society","description":"Three 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. The 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. Prue'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.","brand":"Quercus Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Used - good","offer_id":53315152314710,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Used - very good","offer_id":53370023870806,"sku":"9781849160131-V","price":1.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Used - acceptable","offer_id":53370023936342,"sku":"9781849160131-B","price":1.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9781849160131_1.jpg?v=1778141139","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/leith-prue-the-choral-society-9781849160131","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
