Pursuing a dream of a different kind of life, she is determined to find pleasure in her simply daily routines. Among those who help her in both expected and unexpected ways are the ten-year-old boy next door, three wild women friends from her college days, a twenty-year-old who is struggling to find his place in the world, and a handsome man who is ready for love.\n\nElizabeth Berg's The Year of Pleasuresis about acknowledging the solace found in ordinary things: a warm bath, good food, the beauty of nature, music, friends, and art. \"Berg writes with humor and a big heart about resilience, loneliness, love, and hope. And the transcendence that redeems,\" said Andre Dubus about Durable Goods. And the same could be said about The Year of Pleasures.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1400061601\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: GBV.1400061601.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Berg, Elizabeth\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Has a sturdy binding with some shelf wear.
