With the advent of TV dinners in the 1950s, an intense and entrepreneurial father rises from poverty to build a multi-million-dollar trucking empire hauling frozen food throughout the Northwest. His determination, combined with generosity and strict punishment, leaves his family in a state of emotional paralysis. After his untimely death, his survivors implode in a maelstrom of brutal courtroom drama, illness, and dementia. The estate and family are destroyed.
Frozen Dinners is the story of Elaine Ambrose, who spends half a century searching for love and warmth beyond the contaminated legacy of her fractured family.

Reseñas de la Crítica
"Full of luscious details, clear-eyed compassion, and enduring joy...." (Kim Barnes, author of Pulitzer Prize Finalist for Memoir)
The author did an amazing job of reading what was obviously a deeply emotional personal story. I was impressed by her personal growth and development of respect for her parents' achievements, but at the same time saddened by the common thread of inheritance discord among family members.
I can understand why such a memoir would take more than two decades to write. The chronology became a bit confusing in a couple places where she jumped ahead in time with commentary about a long term result. Overall, the author exhibited amazingly strong control over her emotions while injecting her passion for her family's story.
