Summary
A story about a complex mother-daughter relationship and the redemption they find together one summer. Distributed by Syndetic Solutions, Inc.
Booklist Review
Oliver's Once upon a Gulf Coast Summer is about the death of Josephine Green, attended by her daughter, Kay. Other family members drop in and out, and the advice of Josephine's housekeeper, Adele, is a comfort for all, but in essence this is a tale expressly aimed at women, about a difficult mother and daughter relationship played out over years, told in reflective, sometimes lyrical prose. Those seeking lots of plot twists should look elsewhere. JohnMort. From: Syndetics Solutions, Inc. Distributed by Syndetic Solutions, Inc.
