Hardback. Condición: Good. From a folk-rock legend comes a tender, comic story of family, music, and second chances. Mary Saint, the rule-breaking, troubled former lead singer of the almost-famous band Sliced Ham, has pretty much given up on music after the trauma of her band member and lover Garbagio's death seven years earlier. Instead, with the help of her best friend, Thaddeus, she is trying to piece her life together while making mochaccinos in San Francisco. Meanwhile, back in her hometown of Swallow, New York, her mother, Jean Saint, struggles with her own ghosts. When Mary is invited to give a concert at her old high school, Jean is thrilled, though she's worried about what Father Benedict and her neighbors will think of songs such as "Sewer Flower" and "You're a Pig." But she soon realizes that there are going to be bigger problems when the whole town -- including a discouraged teacher and a baker who's anything but sweet -- gets in on the act. Filled with characters that are wild and original, yet still familiar and warm -- plus plenty of great insider winks at the music industry -- Wayward Saints is a touching and hilarious look at confronting your past and going home again.…

"Mary Saint, the rule-breaking, former lead singer of the almost-famous band Sliced Ham, has given up on music after the death of her band member and lover Garbagio seven years earlier. With the help of her best friend, Thaddeus, Mary is trying to make mochaccinos in San Francisco. Meanwhile, back in her hometown of Swallow, New York, her mother, Jean Saint, struggles with her own ghosts. When Mary is invited to give a concert at her old high school, Jean is thrilled, though she's worried about what Father Benedict and her neighbors will think of songs such as 'Sewer Flower' and 'You're a Pig.' But she soon realizes that there are going to be bigger problems when her arch-nemesis, Adele from the Silver Tray Bakery, gets involved. WAYWARD SAINTS is a touching, emotionally complex and hilarious look at how the past always bumps up against the present. Punctuated by winks at the music business and loving flourishes about family, faith, and the unpredictability of talent, the novel touches on the very deep pain of loss, and the possibilities of the miraculous." [publisher copy] "Suzzy Roche was one-third of the female vocal folk-rock group from New Jersey known as the Roches. With their lovely harmonies and quirky lyrics, their music was, much like this first novel, idiosyncratic and uniquely humorous. The story fluctuates in time and place, from Glasgow and upstate New York to Nashville and San Francisco as Roche turns her experiences as a musician into fodder for fiction. Roche pokes fun at the music business in ways that only a true insider can while offering insights into family, faith, and the past. Fans of the Roches will enjoy this tale, as will any reader who values a well-turned phrase or a story well told."--Booklist. "Spoiler alert: this book is wonderful from beginning to end. I loved every page."--Patricia Marx. Pristine paperback w/sharp corners & crisp edges, a square binding w/no creases in spine & no jacket as issued.…
