Overview

Theodore Ashworth III has achieved, through several years of patient effort, a life that makes essentially no demands. Golf. Lunch. The Bath and Tennis Club. His Aunt Cordelia's discretionary trust clause hovering in the background like a politely worded threat. Then Chip calls. The Whitmore family estate - twelve thousand square feet of crumbling 1925 Mediterranean Revival on South Ocean Boulevard - is three years behind on taxes, has a leaking roof, and is about to become a boutique event venue. Chip has a plan. The plan involves peacocks, a fifteen-foot brass alligator fountain, an ill-advised Everglades expedition, and the first booking being the society wedding of the season for Cordelia's oldest friend. Teddy says no. Chip mentions that his sister Caroline is coming back from Atlanta to deal with it. Teddy says yes. The Season at Pelican's Rest is a comic novel about the gap between what people want and what they can bring themselves to say, and the extraordinary lengths they will go to in order to avoid a direct conversation.
