{"product_id":"separated-acting-badly-bi-cultural-memoir-9780999516256","title":"Separated, Acting Badly: Bi-Cultural Memoir","description":"\u003cp\u003eBarbara Flores, a successful designer and cookbook author vows to keep her family and her thirty-year marriage intact. When her Latin lover professor husband dumps her for a younger woman, she plots an over-my-dead-body warpath against the interloper--a thirtyish Halle-Berry-look-alike. Conflicting advice comes to her family and friends: the white suburban crowd eggs her to \"forget that no-good cheater,\" and her Hispanic amigas urge her to lure him back home with homemade enchiladas, rosary petitions, and if all else fails, witchcraft. With relentless honesty and humor, Flores invites us to witness how lifelong marital commitments can shatter, shift, and reshape our very core. Yet this life-affirming memoir proves the bonds of family can heroically survive its most threatening challenges: infidelity, bi-cultural chasms, and Viagra.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barbara Flores\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Russian Hill Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/15\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 318\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.71d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780999516256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eFlores, Barbara:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Barbara Flores is known internationally as the designer of over thirty iconic food art posters for Ten Speed Press.
