Non-Fiction Memoir
A former Hollywood insider trades the Hollywood Hills
for Green Acres—and lives to tell about it in
this hilarious, poignant treat of a memoir. As
head of her celebrity sister’s production company, Gesine
Bullock-Prado had a closet full of designer clothes and the
ear of all the influential studio heads, but she was
miserable. The only solace she found was in her secret
hobby: baking. With every sugary, buttery confection to
emerge from her oven, Gesine took one step away from her
glittery, empty existence—and one step closer to her true
destiny. Before long, she and her husband left the trappings
of their Hollywood lifestyle behind, ending up in Vermont,
where they started the gem known as Gesine Confectionary.
And they never looked back. Confections of a Closet
Master Baker follows Gesine's journey from
sugar-obsessed child to miserable, awkward Hollywood insider
to reluctant master baker. Chock-full of eccentric
characters, beautifully detailed descriptions of her baking
process, ceaselessly funny renditions of Hollywood nonsense,
and recipes, the ingredients of her story will appeal to
anyone who has ever considered leaving the life they know
and completely starting over.
