Lola Milholland grew up in the nineties, the child of iconoclastic hippies. Her momenergetic and intense at work and at play, whether at her job marketing for an agricultural co-op or paddling down a river, fat spliff in handhad spent her life revolting against the strictures of her American and Filipino upbringing. Her dad, a child of the eastern Oregon desert, was a jovial documentary filmmaker and historian who loved to collect ephemera. Both threw open the doors of the Holman House, their rambling home 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 housematesan eccentric group of stop-motion animators and accomplished cooksin choosing to further the experiment of communal living into a new generation. Group Living and Other Recipes tells the story of the residents of the Holman Houseof 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, utopianwith a wider exploration of group living as a way of life. Thoughtful, quirky, candid, and wise, Group Living and Other Recipes provides a convincing case that now is always the right time to reimagine home and familyand introduces a gifted memoirist and food writer in the tradition of Laurie Colwin, Ruth Reichl, and M.F.K. Fisher. Includes a PDF of all recipes in the text. Contact: [email protected]
