The bestselling author of Stones from the River delivers her most ambitious and dramatic novel yet -- the unforgettable story of an endearing, but also flawed, Italian American family. In December 1953 Anthony Amedeo's world is nested in his Bronx neighborhood, his parents' Studebaker, the Paradise Theater, Yankee Stadium -- and in his imagination, where he longs for a stencil kit to decorate the windows like all the other kids on his street. Instead he gets a very different present: his uncle Malcolm's family. Malcolm is in jail for stealing -- once again -- from his latest new job, and Anthony's aunt and twin cousins settle into the Amedeos' fifth-floor walk-up. Sharing a room with girls is excruciating for Anthony, despite his affinity for the twins. But the real change in Anthony's life comes one evening when he causes the unthinkable to happen, changing each family member's life forever. Evoking all the plenty and optimism of postwar America, Sacred Time spans three generations, taking us from the Bronx of the 1950s to contemporary Brooklyn. Keenly observing the dark side of family -- and its gracefulness -- Hegi has outdone herself with this captivating novel about childhood's tenderness and the landscape of loneliness. Ultimately she reveals how the transforming power of a singular event can reverberate through a family for generations. With gravity and poise, Hegi turns her astute yet forgiving eye on the essential frailty and dignity of the human condition in this elegant and fast-paced novel.Binding Type: Paperback

Finally, Jerky Worth the Hype
Flavor Name: Variety, Size: 2.5 oz (Pack of 6)
Country Archer jerky is the real deal. Most jerky either tastes like salted cardboard or requires a dental plan to chew through. Not this. It’s tender without being mushy, packed with flavor without being fake or overpowering, and it actually tastes like real meat (imagine that!).
The seasoning is spot-on — bold enough to make you keep reaching for another piece, but not so strong that it overwhelms. It’s the kind of jerky you “save for later” and then accidentally eat the whole bag in one sitting. Price is fair, quality is high, and honestly, it puts the gas station jerky brands to shame.

Not worth the price for what you get
Flavor Name: Variety, Size: 2.5 oz (Pack of 6)
For the price, it still tastes like processed meat jerky. The flavor is bold and nice size of a slice to bite on. I still give it 4 stars because I’m still eating it obviously. Would I buy it again? Well, hence the 4 stars. Worth a try, but I wouldn’t pay that much for nothing in quality standards that says it’s worth its price.
