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\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\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\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lola Milholland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Spiegel \u0026amp; Grau\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/06\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.75w x 1.05d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781954118577\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/03\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/15\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2024 pg. 10\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLola Milholland\u003c\/b\u003e is a food-business owner and writer whose work has appeared in \u003ci\u003eThe Guardian\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTime\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eOprah Daily\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSlate\u003c\/i\u003e, and elsewhere.
