The Good Life Guy radio show with host Guy Bowker. Sharon and Guy discuss the recipes and food traditions in The Pelican Tide.
Set in Grand Isle, Louisiana in the wake of the massive Deepwater Horizon oil spill, The Pelican Tide is the story of a family in turmoil, a historic café, and a beautiful but fragile ecosystem under threat. In this assured debut, Sharon J. Wishnow creates a strong sense of place and deftly brings the natural world of this Gulf barrier island to life. Readers looking for a heartwarming story, memorable characters, and the delights of a wayward pelican named Gumbo will be richly rewarded.
