Book Description
Matthue Roth's inspired and insightful tale of a punk-rock Orthodox Jew who goes to Hollywood to find her place. Don't think for a second that you know Hava or her place in the world. Yes, she's an Orthodox Jew. But that doesn't mean she can't rock out. And yes, she has opinions about everything around her. But her opinions about herself can be twice as harsh. Now Hava's just been asked to be the token Jew on a TV show about a Jewish family, trading one insular community for another. As in Tanuja Desai Hidier's BORN CONFUSED, there is soon a collision of both cultures and desires -- with one headstrong heroine caught in the middle.

Book Description
This official cookbook features totally eighties dishes from the hit TV show. Fans have been clamoring for the recipes created by television's favorite sMother, Beverly Goldberg, and The Goldbergs Cookbook delivers. Played by Wendi McLendon-Covey and based on creator and show-runner Adam F. Goldberg's real mother, Beverly Goldberg takes every opportunity to cook for her family, putting forth her philosophy: food is love-- and a way to manipulate. These seventy recipes, most taken from the same recipe box prominently featured in the show's sixth season, give hungry fans their best chance to cook like Beverly, who uses outlandish quantities of cheeses and meats (with veggies few and far between)--and who doles out unwanted help and snuggies to her ungrateful kids as she goes. Recipes include Beverly's infamous Shrimp Parm-- and many other Parms, since Parming is her thing; meaty family favorites such as Rib Pot Pie (No Peas, No Carrots), 7-Meat Meatloaf, and Big Tasty Pork; and recipes Bev makes with good (unsolicited) intentions, including Barry's Special Power Chili and Bran Muffins to Help You Make, among many others. Retro food photographs accompany many of the recipes and show stills will showcase the entire Goldberg family in all of their high-strung glory.

Nancy Huston describes GOLDBERG VARIATIONS:"Suppose you invite thirty people to your home, people whom you love or have loved, to listen to you perform Bach's Goldberg Variations. And say that this concert unfolds like a midsummer night's dream, that is, you, Liliane, succeed in vibrating thirty people like so many variations, each at a different tune -- you must oscillate between memory and speculation; you must, above all, master your fears -- maybe then, all these fragments of music would dance into the same stream, and that you would call GOLDBERG VARIATIONS, a novel."
