| Résumé: | Vibrant, opinionated, and independent-that's Galveston widow Rose Parrish. Seventy-six years old and in failing health, Rose is coming to grips with her life. She lives alone in a stately home once full of life; her only companions are her housekeeper, Pearl, her financial advisor, Captain J.J. Broussard, and a young medical student, Jesse Martin. Mary Powell weaves the separate stories of these people important to Rose into a poignant and often humorous tale of "the good life" and "the good death."Preparing for the inevitable, Rose sells all her stock to fund her last adventure; she changes he. |
