Greenie Duquette lavishes most of her passionate energy on her Greenwich Village bakery and her four-year-old son, George. Her husband, Alan, seems to have fallen into a midlife depression, while Walter, her closest professional ally, is nursing a broken heart. It is at Walter's restaurant that the visiting governor of New Mexico tastes Greenie's coconut cake and decides to woo her away from the city to be his chef. For reasons both ambitious and desperate, she accepts - and finds herself heading west without her husband. This impulsive decision, along with events beyond Greenie's control, will change the course of several lives around her.
The Whole World Over is a vividly human tale of longing and loss, folly and forgiveness, revealing the subtle mechanisms behind our most important, and often most fragile, connections to others.

Zustand: Muy bueno. : En 'The Whole World Over', Greenie Duquette vuelca la mayor parte de su apasionada energía en su panadería de Greenwich Village y en su hijo de cuatro años, George. Su marido, Alan, parece haber caído en una depresión de mediana edad, mientras que Walter, su aliado profesional más cercano, está lidiando con un corazón roto. Es en el restaurante de Walter donde el gobernador visitante de Nuevo México prueba el pastel de coco de Greenie y decide llevársela de la ciudad para que sea su chef. Por razones tanto ambiciosas como desesperadas, ella acepta y se encuentra dirigiéndose al oeste sin su marido. Esta impulsiva decisión, junto con acontecimientos que escapan al control de Greenie, cambiará el curso de varias vidas a su alrededor. 'The Whole World Over' es una historia vívidamente humana de anhelo y pérdida, locura y perdón, que revela los sutiles mecanismos que subyacen a nuestras conexiones más importantes y, a menudo, más frágiles con los demás.
