Description:
"What's the point of being Irish anyway if you don't think the world will break your heart?" asks Jack Kennedy. He is spellbound by a song about Ireland's neverland of dreams: "How Are Things in Glocca Morra?"
No one better knew the real JFK's dreams and passions than Lem Billings, a prep-school roommate who made himself "sidekick everlasting." The late Peter Collier had the great fortune to obtain oral histories from Billings himself, and they became the basis for a vivid biographical novel in Lem's voice.
On assignment with the Hearst newspapers, Jack goes with Lem to Hollywood, that neverland of dreams he loves for "the feeling that something might happen." Things do. Communists and gangsters vie for control of the film industry. There are labor strikes, blackmail, assassinations. And there are glamorous actresses. Joseph Kennedy Sr. hovers oppressively over his son and aims to derail his romance with Valentina, survivor of an Italian prison camp and daughter of a mobster.
The world breaks Jack's heart, and he dives into politics with steely purpose. But the interlude in Hollywood sends ripples through the Kennedys' lives. When Lem gets the news of JFK's assassination, he instantly thinks of Val's father-a man whose middle name is vendetta.
Billings never got the answers he sought about Jack's death. As for his intimate knowledge of the Kennedys, he remained ever discreet, but left a trove of recollections to be opened by a later generation. Channeled through Collier's lively and imaginative prose, they illuminate shadowy corners of an extraordinary American saga.

I loved it! The grinders look very elegant and work perfectly. The size is great, they’re easy to use, and the grinding is smooth. They also feel sturdy and good quality. Definitely recommend!

Nice grinders for the price
Model: 2 Pack Salt and Pepper Grinder
The grinders are working fine, though I have only used them for a couple of days. Their size is a little smaller than I would like for in kitchen cooking, but I got them knowing they will work better in a planned move with a smaller kitchen. Good size for a table. I'm happy with the clean, simple appearance and the quality so far. Just ordered a second set for white and mixed color peppercorns and will donate the sort of hodge podge assortment of grinders I currently use.

Love them
Model: 2 Pack Salt and Pepper Grinder
Love those. Good quality material and work very nicely. I like that I could set the size of the ground salt and pepper by myself, this was very useful.
