"Remoulade and Ramos are the founders of this city"s spirit: fun loving and lively, easygoing and unhurried, unique and defiant," [Gramps] said. "And those of us who live here in New Orleans are the best animators of that spirit.
Miller skillfully weaves the tale of twin brothers, fed by a pelican, who grew up to found America"s eternal city of New Orleans with a young man"s rite of passage. It is told by a Louisiana native in love with New Orleans with warmth, humor, and imagery as palpable as New Orleans humidity.
"Remoulade and Ramos" first appeared as an article in the March 2016 issue of Liguorian magazine. It received First Place for Best Short Story by the Catholic Press Association.
Says the author, "New Orleans is a city of distinct culture and cuisine, legendary hospitality and music, alluring architecture and old-world charm. In a city that inspires so many--from artists to authors, from musicians to magicians--let its rich 300-year history inspire you in a profound way."
