About this product

Product Information

New York Times bestselling author Dorothea Benton Frank takes readers on a rollicking ride in this Lowcountry tale about a woman whose unconventional friends and family show her the real meaning of unconditional love. Anna Lutz Abbot considers herself independent and happy--until one steamy summer when her collegiate daughter comes home a very different person, her wild and wonderful ex-husband shows up on her doorstep, and her flamboyant new best friend takes up with Anna's father. And the already hot temperatures are cranked up another ten degrees by Anna's own fling with Arthur, who is, heaven help her, a Yankee. Now Anna must face the fact that she isn't as in control of her life as she'd thought. And she must find a way to deal with the whole truth--not just the comfortable parts.

Reviews
"Isle of Palms is as light and gratifying as a sand dollar just washed to shore ."--The Atlanta Journal and Constitution   "Entertaining...Garrulous, engaging Anna's a treat, talking up a storm about life in the South Carolina Low Country as she makes her second coming of age. Really, it's best just to take Anna's initial advice--sit back, relax, sip some sweet tea and listen up. She's got a story to tell."-- The Orlando Sentinel   "[A] page-turner."-- St. Petersburg Times   "Beneath the Fannie Flagg-style jocularity and small town anecdotes lies a more serious subject: loneliness. Credit this unlikely cast of characters with having the strength to form unconventional loving relationships, an ad hoc family of sorts, to fill the void left by their less-than-perfect biological ones. Upbeat and uplifting, Anna's song is one of hope in the face of modern realities for all those whose dreams have been derailed by circumstance."-- The Fort Myers News-Press, "Isle of Palms is as light and gratifying as a sand dollar just washed to shore ."--The Atlanta Journal and Constitution "Entertaining...Garrulous, engaging Anna's a treat, talking up a storm about life in the South Carolina Low Country as she makes her second coming of age.

  • Isle of Palms

    A friend told me about this book and how much she loved it. I had to find out for myself. I found an excellent price on ebay and purchased the book. This is a funny, toughtful and real book. Dorothea Benton Frank is an excellent author. She writes so visually that you feel you are in the book as you are reading. It is a wonderful story of a woman and her life growing up in the South. It is full of hysterical phrases that any Southerner can appreciate and remember when they first heard that saying in their own life. I would reccomend this book for anyone who is looking for a light, fun book with a mix of drama.

  • Great read

    All of Dorothea books are fabulous.
