Hurricane Katrina.
We had only seven weeks to find a new place to live, locate another church, reserve space for another rehearsal dinner, set up a new reception, book new flights to Orlando, and make arrangements to keep our Disney honeymoon. For the first two of those seven weeks, we had no electricity, no clean running water, no phones, and no internet connection. Even if we had decided to cancel the wedding, we wouldn’t have any way of telling anyone.
This is a completely true story about two young people in love who struggled to put their lives back together and still get married despite tremendous odds. I wish I could say this was all just a story, but it really happened.
This is how to get married in a federal disaster area.
Fulks has managed a nearly impossible task. He has taken an event seared into the memories of those there - and those just in front of the television sets - and produced a piece of art that is immediately epic in scope and yet personal to any reader of this that has either a heart, a soul or both. He also did it in a form that makes you actively question how this could possibly be his first novel.
