Welcome to Southern Fried Fantasy, a podcast for readers and writers, where southern authors talk about books set in the region they call home. Book lovers beware, your TBR pile is about to get taller than high cotton.
Author Ellen Morris Prewitt talks with Bob about her novel 'When We Were Murderous Time-Traveling Women.'
"Story is as strong as reality.
When Etoile moves to New Orleans, she leaves behind in Mississippi a childhood of loss, a host of conflicting memories, and a lot of dead people. Only one of whom perished under suspicious circumstances.
But there are rules for living in a magical city such as New Orleans. Etoile realizes this the moment she accidentally conjures a castle and a prince. And a saint. And her three ancestral grannies.
The prince is desperate to find his would-be assassin. Since murder runs in the family, Etoile and her grannies join the quest, and their often-risible, sometimes-precarious trek compels the krewe through history, family, and the inscrutable city.
As they search for the fiend, Etoile and the prince—separately and as one—regress and come of age again. Sometimes destiny arrives in a mist and lingers like the blush of good wine.
