Laws didn’t support her. Society shunned her. She was often banished from home. That’s what happens to Penelope Gold, the heroine of Growing A Family in Persimmon Hollow. She is exiled to the Florida frontier town of Persimmon Hollow. She’s expected to hide for the duration of her pregnancy, leave her newborn for adoption and scurry home. But something remarkable happens after she arrives. She finds love, acceptance, faith and a newfound determination to pursue the future she wants.

In the second novel in the Persimmon Hollow Legacy series, we meet starry-eyed seamstress Josefa Gomez. Living and working with her aunt and uncle at a citrus grove in Persimmon Hollow, Josefa longs for the glamorous life of a sophisticated fashion designer. Her dreams alarm her Tía Lupita, who fears such ambitions are unrealistic for a 19th century woman. She decides Josefa should live with distant relatives and prepare for an arranged marriage. The headstrong Josefa rebels. Without telling her aunt, she accepts an apprenticeship with the town’s dressmaker and continues to see two suitors. She’s dazzled by the wealth and charm of one but feels more relaxed and open with the other. She’s also unaware of the wealthier man’s dangerous motives. Will she choose the man who could give her the outward trappings? Or the man who has fewer material goods but a bigger heart?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: * One of the Boston Globe's Best Books of 2020 * Winner of the Walt Whitman Award of the Academy of American Poets, selected by Li-Young Lee The More Extravagant Feast focuses on the trophic exchanges of a human body with the world via pregnancy, motherhood, and interconnection—the acts of making and sustaining other bodies from one’s own, and one’s own from the larger world. Leah Naomi Green writes from attentiveness to the vast availability and capacity of the weedy, fecund earth and from her own human place within more-than-human life, death, and birth. Lyrically and spiritually rich, striving toward honesty and understanding, The More Extravagant Feast is an extraordinary book of awareness of our dependency on ecological systems—seen and unseen.
