Makenna Goodman's “The Shame” is at once a narrative about art, work, capitalism, motherhood, fear, the choices we don’t make and the ones we do, and whether our lives can ever be enough. It is seemingly a perfect novel for our COVID-19 times. The pandemic has affected many working parents (particularly mothers) who have faced hard decisions about work, childcare, and virtual education for their children — sacrifices have inevitably been made.
Buy the book, read along with #BostondotcomBookClub, and watch the virtual discussion hosted by Allie Levy, owner of Still North Books & Bar, with author Makenna Goodman.
Talulla is a mom and pop establishment named for our daughter. We gather inspiration from our time spent traveling the world getting to know the farmers and winemakers and regions who we represent. We then create our own interpretations from our cherished memories. Our food and wine programs are solely based around people we know and places we’ve been. Our menu is ever evolving and changes by the day to reflect the seasons.
