Product Description
by Alee Reina Hoffman (Author)
What happens when the life you spent years building suddenly unravels? When grief upends everything, and the only way forward is back-to a place you swore you'd never return?
In this raw, darkly funny, and deeply moving memoir, Alee trades in a peak chapter of life as a successful spiritual coach in Venice Beach for the somewhat suffocating embrace of her hometown on Long Island. What begins as a temporary stay to grieve and handle the aftermath of a tragedy becomes a longer reckoning-with loss, with family, and with the echoes of a past she thought she had healed, alongside a version of herself she thought she'd outgrown.
Joined by her mother (her accidental roommate and frequent accomplice for this journey), Alee navigates the strange art of navigating a life interrupted, untangling from generational wounds and tightly wound expectations, and finding nourishment-literal and spiritual-in unexpected people and places.
Through moments of heartbreak, absurdity, and courage, Dark Times Catering explores what it means to fill up and rebuild after devastating loss-one awkward step, cosmic sign, and family dinner at a time.
