In the summers of the early 1970s, Morris Ardoin and his siblings helped run their family's roadside motel in a hot, buggy, bayou town in Cajun Louisiana. The stifling, sticky heat inspired them to find creative ways to stay cool and out of trouble. When they were not doing their chores — handling a colorful cast of customers, scrubbing motel-room toilets, plucking chicken bones and used condoms from under the beds — they played canasta, an old ladies’ game that provided them with a refuge from the sun and helped them avoid their violent, troubled father.

Excellent Short Story
Revisado: 02-15-24
Emotional, succinct, and beautifully written. This short story manages to paint a lifetime in broad yet specific sketches. Highly recommended for anyone interested in a short piece that explores universal themes with a clever conceit.
