Change is never easy, but as the expression goes, "One door closes and another one opens." Brilliant and beautiful, lusty New Yorker Latkes Linguini pursues her heart's desire, a shy red-headed man named Jason McDougal, whom she meets in college English. After he is offered a position in the music department at SUNY Albany, Lottie cooks delicious meals for his associates so Jason can rise within the department ... until she starts feeling ill all the time.
Exploring the possibility of a move to rural Western Massachusetts, Jason lands a job at UMass Amherst, and Lottie finds an apartment -- and a potential lover -- while her husband is asked to teach one last summer course in New York. Lottie's new friend, a handsome yoga teacher from Amherst, challenges her sense of loyalty to a marriage that may be dying. But the appearance of Lottie's childhood friend, Dorothea Cruz, now a curvaceous martial artist, ultimately offers Lottie's greatest temptation, and possibly her greatest reward.
Coincidentally following the path taken by Sojourner Truth, a well-known African-American abolitionist and women's rights advocate, Lottie wonders that Truth's name was inscribed at the New York college where she and Jason met, while a statue of the freed slave stands near their new home in Massachusetts. Will Lottie figure out the answer to this riddle, while learning how to change her ways?
Posing questions and answers about issues of modern life, A Drink of Green is also a timeless story of love and loyalty battered by the winds of change.

I appreciated how this story brings delightful character names, compelling descriptions of food and family dynamics, and a Western Mass-centric twist to the story of Lottie Linguini, a sensitive child in a hardworking Jewish-Italian family that values the sensual pleasure of food.Product details

A Drink of Green edition by Leah Rose Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
A Drink of Green takes the reader on the spiritual and physical journey of a young woman who grows up in New York only to find that the city itself is a harm to her mental and chemical well being. Along the way, we are privy to a love story of pure intention in a time when the cordiality of courtship was beginning to be forgotten.
The story is divided between the experience of the protagonist, Latkes Linguini (or Lottie), as an adult losing her husband, and her journey of maturation, where she faces the cultural divide of her Jewish-Italian family, the sexual pressures of puberty, and the discovery of Yoga and organic eating that change her views of the world forever. The stories link up in a climatic finish that culminates in the end of one life, and the beginning of another.
Riddled with tragedy, romance, confusion and self-discovery, A Drink Of Green challenges the contemporary view of how one should live, and begs the question What constitutes a truly healthy life?
I appreciated how this story brings delightful character names, compelling descriptions of food and family dynamics, and a Western Mass-centric twist to the story of Lottie Linguini, a sensitive child in a hardworking Jewish-Italian family that values the sensual pleasure of food.
