SAVE THE DATE: Happy Bookers Discussion Group: Wednesday, December 7, 7:00pm
The winner of the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, as well as seven other awards, The Sympathizer is the breakthrough novel of the year. With the pace and suspense of a thriller and prose that has been compared to Graham Greene and Saul Bellow, The Sympathizer is a sweeping epic of love and betrayal. The narrator, a communist double agent, is a “man of two minds,” a half-French, half-Vietnamese army captain who arranges to come to America after the Fall of Saigon, and while building a new life with other Vietnamese refugees in Los Angeles is secretly reporting back to his communist superiors in Vietnam. |

 With the holidays quickly approaching, I wanted to share a favorite side dish this month. This is simple and has cranberries and bacon, along with some green beans. How can you go wrong? I like to use a chili-infused maple syrup that brings just a touch of heat to the beans, so feel free to experiment to match your tastes. And I prefer the beans to still be firm which is why I don’t steam them before tossing with the onion mixture. If you like them softer, steam them for 5 minutes or so before adding to the skillet. these recipes! |
