In tough times, even amoebas turn to family... It's late 2008 and everything is just terrible. The Dow is dropping, unemployment is rising, nobody's buying any cars, and even worse than that, the Cates sisters are forced to celebrate Thanksgiving together. Their late father's will leaves everything in his estate to be divided among all family members, but how are they going to split up an eccentric old house between them when the bottom has fallen out of the real estate market? Not only that, but it turns out dear old Dad left behind a few secrets that may come back to haunt them all. The three baby boomer sisters were already dealing with their own problems. Valerie, a cellist with the New York City Ballet, is facing job upheaval. Miranda, a free-spirited art gallery owner, is considering reviving an old love affair. Helen is developing a close and personal relationship with her Wii boxing instructor. They've got issues, but the rest of the family is pretty messed up too. Septuagenarian Aunt Reenie wants to relive her Hollywood heyday and eighteen-year-old triplets Dee, Erica and Devon are dealing with boyfriends, girlfriends, revenge, and celebrity crappola. Valerie's ex-husband Jack comes back into the picture, a movie director's RV runs amok, and good times are had by all. THE PLEASURE OF YOUR COMPANY explores all the joys of sibling rivalry, financial hard times, nearly-forgotten memories and plain old craziness in a story of family relationships too tangled to unravel and too funny to ignore. Written by Carolyn Steele Agosta, the author of EVERY LITTLE STEP SHE TAKES and proud member of a pretty large and demented family herself.
