Inhaltsangabe

Set against the rugged beauty of the northern woods, the heartwarming first novel by columnist Carrie Classon explores how chosen family can sweeten bitterness into surprising joy.

Alone in the Northwoods, Norry Last settles in for another springtime lull at the remote resort she inherited from her father. She’s content with the solitude, maybe resigned. But when a blizzard hits, those little cabins by the lake start to fill up fast.

First to arrive is Lizzie, an eight-year-old with resilience and wisdom beyond her years, neglected by a mother struggling with addiction. Next comes Wendell, a cantankerous old fellow whose house collapses in the storm, the same way hope collapsed inside him long before. And then there’s Bud, the helpful handyman who’s always buzzing around, his kindness thawing something Norry thought she’d buried deep in the Minnesota snow.

As white melts to green, the Last Resort’s unlikely companions learn to share space, stories, and quiet comforts―an unexpected family that makes perfect sense. After all, Lizzie needs to be cared for. Wendell needs to care. Norry needs to open up. And Bud? Bud just might fix everything.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Carrie Classon is a performer and a nationally syndicated columnist with Andrews McMeel Universal. Born in Minnesota, she had a fourteen-year career in theater, performing in dozens of shows from Oregon to Maine. After founding and running a professional Equity theater for seven years, Carrie earned her MBA and began working in international business. She also holds an MFA in creative nonfiction from the University of New Mexico and has written one memoir, several plays, and over six hundred columns.

In her weekly column, The Postscript, Carrie writes about the transformative power of optimism and how to find the extraordinary in the ordinary. She champions the idea that it’s never too late to reinvent our lives in unexpected and fulfilling ways. She performs a live show based on her writing―with lots of sequins. With her husband, Peter, and former street cat, Felix, Carrie splits her time between Saint Paul, Minnesota, and San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Loon Point is her debut novel.
