Description

On a quiet August night along the Alabama Gulf Coast, Miss Betty Brown returns to the Polka Dot Mermaid for a simple supper in the old bomb-shelter dining room known as the Florida Room. The televisions say the hurricane will hit somewhere else. They always do—until they don't. When Marylou turns north and the bridge off the island disappears, memory, loss, and the long indifference of the Gulf rise with the wind. August Wind is a haunting story of complacency, love, and the thin line between safety and reckoning.
