Deep in the Shade of Paradise by John Dufresne
"A comic opera…tuneful, playful." ― New York Times Book Review In Shiver-de-Freeze, Louisiana (population 375), friends and family have gathered for the impending nuptials of Grisham Loudermilk and Ariane Thevenot. This will be no ordinary wedding―not when Boudou Fontana, the last of the star-crossed Fontana clan, the conjoined twins Tous-les-Doux, and a host of others are involved. From a writer of rare grace and comic genius comes a “warm, sad, and hilarious ride through the carnival of life” ( Dallas Morning News ). Rich in character and insight into the vagaries and varieties of love and memory, Deep in the Shade of Paradise is John Dufresne at his funny and thoughtful best.
