The Widow's ChildrenOn the eve of their trip to Africa, Laura Maldonada Clapper and her husband, Desmond, sit in a New York City hotel room, drinking scotch and sodas and awaiting the arrival of three friends: Clara Hansen, Laura's timid, brow beaten daughter from a previous marriage; Carlos, Laura's flamboyant and charming brother; and Peter Rice, a melancholy editor whom Laura hasn't seen for over a year.

On the eve of their trip to Africa, Laura Maldonada Clapper and her husband, Desmond, sit in a New York City hotel room, drinking scotch-and-sodas and awaiting the arrival of three friends: Clara Hansen, Laura's timid, brow-beaten daughter from a previous marriage; Carlos, Laura's flamboyant and charming brother; and Peter Rice, a melancholy editor whom Laura hasn't seen for over a year. But what begins as a bon voyage party soon parlays into a bitter, claustrophobic clash of family resentment. From the hotel room to the tony restaurant to which the five embark, Laura presides over the escalating innuendo and hostility with imperial cruelty, for she is hiding the knowledge that her mother, the family matriarch, has died of a heart attack that morning. A novel as intense as it is unerringly observed, The Widow's Children is another revelation of the storyteller's art from the incomparable Paula Fox.Binding Type: Paperback

Our dog loves them!
Flavor Name: Chicken, Flavor Name: Chicken
We are very impressed with these Gaines Family Farmstead Chicken chips! Our dog is picky and she absolutely loves them! She just turned 13 so we are trying to give her the best and healthiest. These chicken chips have only one ingredient so they are perfect! We will be ordering again!

Please be.careful
Flavor Name: Chicken
Love the Gaines Family treats, but this one made my 22lb dog deathly ill for 5 days. We feared we would lose him as nothing would stop the diarrhea and retching. He couldn’t even make it through the night without multiple trips outdoors.

Dogs can't get enough
Flavor Name: Chicken
If I let them, my dogs would eat every single piece in one setting. My Chihuahua even dances for them. Will definitely buy again.
