The Sangrita Club
The Sangrita Club Summary
Four New York City female corporate executives: Vanessa, Anne, Monica, and Maria come from differing backgrounds, racially, culturally and socioeconomically, and struggle with varying issues of abandonment, lovelornness, sexual abuse, and addictions. At first glance, it appears as though they have nothing in common, however as members of "The Sangrita Club," these women discover that they are all seeking the same thing, a way to escape. The Sangrita Club is a story of how these women forge a bond in the face of adversities, which helps them find a way up, out, through, around, and over the stumbling blocks in their lives and transform them into stepping-stones. By breaking through each other’s facades, they discover the illuminating value that lies within their sisterhood, which helps them heal from the symptoms of their past secrets.
