Henrietta Rose is a woman felled by drink for most of her life, and now sober if slowed by some delayed effects of her habit. She is a naïve painter, a raconteur, and sought-after speaker at AA meetings, and a good Samaritan to some colorful young drunks. Once she was a rich and famous hostess in exotic capitals and mother of three children, whom she has lost here and there. Her losses haunt her, but sobriety tickles her too; she screws up her courage to give a series of dinner parties to reacquaint herself with her brother and grandson, and gives one last grand party for them and all her new friends.De la Cuesta, Barbara is the author of 'Henrietta Rose' with ISBN 9780595010127 and ISBN 0595010121.
