The Shade of the Gumbo-Limbo (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781078494724)

Author of several books and the column "Texas Meditations" in the Bay Area Houston Magazine, Michael Gos has given readers a rare insight to true male friendship in the novel, The Shade of the Gumbo-Limbo. This literary novel is a coming of age story in a sense, but so much more. It is really a story about "coming to wisdom." Follow a decade of Steve Kennedy and Mac Gill making their way through life's decisions. See how their friendship evolves through girlfriends, kids, and marriage. Gos takes readers on a journey through hard times, fun times, job promotions (and lack of them) in settings as cold as snowy Indiana nights all the way to sunny Martinique. See what happens when Mac follows a more traditional path while Steve takes "the road less traveled." Through their lives, we witness how to determine what is truly important in life. In a Hemingway-like style, this book is a fun read with a serious message.
