A COMING-OF-AGE first novel about living life with GUSTO
Description
The first year of college ended, two best friends scribble their goals and shallow wishes on the paper tablecloth of their favorite café. “Lose five pounds.” “Acquire world’s largest collection of shoes.” “Fall semester in Spain.”
But later that night, an unthinkable moment shatters Vicki Brightman’s notion of invincible youth. Grief- stricken, she travels to spend summer with family on Sanibel Island, Florida but quickly deep dives into darkness, engulfed by insomnia, panic attacks, and a preoccupation with her own mortality. As she takes a job living and waiting tables on a small, remote mangrove island, her adventurous healing journey—that takes her all the way to Spain, and deep into her soul—is underway.
From a tarpon fishing captain to a flamenco dancer, to a bullfighter, Vicki encounters enlightening strangers along the way, who inspire and remind her of the significance of just being alive. In the end, she returns to the café, mindful of her own breath and her purpose-filled steps. Determined to live life to the fullest, she rewrites her tablecloth scribbles.
