Chez Cordelia : A Novel (Paperback)

Cordelia Miller, an endearing young misfit in a scholarly, cultured family, loves junk food, TV, and the son of the local grocer. Her attempt to escape her stifling background and find her way in the world takes her on a classic journey from innocence to experience. She encounters a varied cast of characters—some comic, some calamitous—and, in the end, discovers her true vocation.
