THE VINEYARD

Olivia Jones has always dreamed about her family and the mother who abandoned her. When she begins to work for Natalie Seebring , the 70-something matron of the Vineyard, just prior to her marriage to her childhood sweetheart, Carl, she creates more dreams. But families aren't always what we imagine them to be. Lauren Mufson brings Olivia and Natalie to the fore as they struggle with their pasts and soon to be intertwined futures. Mufson's soft voice and subtle inflections reveal the slowly building romance that lies just below the surface of this tale of families and dreams.
