Grant's story follows the sometimes smooth, sometimes jagged, always revealing contours of her life: from her days as a dancer struggling to find her place at Julliard, to her experiences in and out of four-star kitchens in New York City, to falling in love with her future husband and leaving the city after 9\/11 for California, where her children are born. All the while, a sense of longing pulses in each stage as she moves through the headspace of a young woman longing to be sustained by a city into that of a mother now sustaining a family herself.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Written with the transparency of a diarist, \u003ci\u003eEverything Is Under Control\u003c\/i\u003e is an unputdownable series of vignettes followed by tried-and-true recipes from Grant's table--a heartrending yet unsentimental portrait of the highs and lows of young adulthood, motherhood, and a life in the kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49735210008849,"sku":"NGR9780374150143","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50349543948561,"sku":"CIN0374150141G","price":4.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50829222871313,"sku":"CIN0374150141VG","price":4.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52811542757649,"sku":"GOR012356438","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0374150141.jpg?v=1786111247","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/everything-is-under-control-book-phyllis-grant-9780374150143","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
