This place of wonder : a novel

O'Neal, Barbara, 1959-2022
Books, Manuscripts
When famed chef Augustus Beauvais dies, he leaves behind a celebrated reputation - and four women grappling with loss, anger, pain, and the question of how the world will turn without him. Meadow, the ex-wife with whom Augustus built an empire - and a family - still holds a place for him in her heart, even as she continues to struggle with his infidelities, which ended their twenty-year marriage. More unforgiving is Maya, his estranged daughter, who's recently out of rehab but finally ready to reclaim her life. Norah, his latest girlfriend, sidelined her own career for unexpected love and a life of luxury, both of which are now gone with Augustus. And then there's Rory, Meadow's daughter, the voice of calm and reason in a chorus of discontent.
