Growing Up Delicious
Marianne Banks
There were a lot of reasons that explained why Jennifer Andersen left Delicious. The marriage of her sweetheart to a man and her attempt to drown her now ex-sweetheart’s father — Delicious’s rabid preacher — in the baptismal font made getting out of town mandatory. She didn’t look back, made herself a good life and settled down with a good woman. Decades later the phone call comes: her mother, who had led the religious fervor against Jennifer and her type, has committed suicide.
With a rapier sharp wit and the skilled insight of a veteran novelist, debut writer Marianne Banks peels back the surfaces of those who dwell in Delicious to reveal the good, the bad and the monstrous in this funny, human story.
Marianne Banks is working on her second novel. When not writing, she works at a self-storage facility helping people deal with their stuff’. She lives happily in Leeds, Massachusetts, with a woman whom she can now call her legal next of kin.
