"Walk on the Wild Side" Донны Кауфман - это роман об американской светской львице и рестораторе. В нем рассказывается история того, как эти двое столкнулись друг с другом, и какие последствия повлекли за собой эти отношения.
Книга была написана в 1968 году и привлекла внимание американского общества благодаря смелому описанию жизни богатой и гламурной американской аристократии. Несмотря на это, авторы книги смогли передать глубину и сложность эмоций героев, их мечтаний и страстей.
Sunny Chandler — избалованная американская богатая наследница, которая выросла в кругу роскоши и достатка. Однако, выросшая на знаменитой итальянской кухне, она уверена, что кулинарное искусство — это действительно искусство, а не просто хобби для тех, кто учится готовить. Поэтому, устав от влияния людей своего круга, она решает принять карьеру поваром в итальянской пиццерии, находящейся всего в нескольких кварталах от ее дома. Но ее первая работа оказывается недостаточно для нее, поэтому она становится шеф-поваром. Несмотря на то, что она уверенно руководит своим бизнесом, у нее возникают проблемы с психическим здоровьем, когда она ловит себя на том, что постоянно сравнивает свое прошлое с настоящим и не может найти в себе настоящую уверенность. Она также вынуждена противостоять своей семье и друзьям, которые пытаются ограничить ее карьеру. Meanwhile, Nick D'Angelo is an Italian American chef of his own restaurant, Osteria di Angelo in Chicago. Surrounded by his cousins who constantly try to set him up with girls, he learns how to cook from the master that his grandfather had been. When he becomes the restaurant owner, he has to deal not only with his relatives, but also with their influence on his decisions, especially on whom to hire for his restaurant and who to let go. He also starts attracting girls who seek him out to be a "cooking spooner" in a non-cooking job role. At the same time, his grandmother constantly tries to try to come between them. When they meet, one of their similarities is their reluctance to allow others to control their lives and change their decisions without permission; it becomes a common thread between their own family and the person who might ruin their plans. It's not just they do n't want to be "Daddy's child" or "Mommy's kid", but they don't think that somebody else should have any more authority over their lives than their own parents. Instead, they want their desires to guide them, just like they want to choose their own path in life. Despite the differences between them, Sunny and Nick share a special bond and eventually become lovers. Their relationship highlights the complexities of life, love, and relationships as well as the power of music, art, and poetry in everyday lives. Overall, this book provides insight into the world of the jetset, food, and wine and a glimpse into how far you can truly push yourself when living the fast and trendy lifestyle.
