There is always the certainty of change; nothing stays the same: people, circumstances and neighborhoods, to name a few, all change. The Table Turners is the story about the Turners, a family in New Orleans as they stand on the threshold of their dreams being fulfilled: moving away from the lower income class neighborhood along the Mississippi River and a tiny shotgun house into a middle income class neighborhood and a bigger new house far from the river. The family is also on the brink of seeing their family business come to life, but then a tragedy occurs. The story begins in 1975 and unfolds over a period of twenty-one years. The young Turner children, Brandon and Freddie, are poignantly changed as they grow from children, to adolescents into adulthood. Their parents, John and Delta, are also profoundly changed as they see their hard work come to a bountiful fruition. As the business grows, so does the financial status of the Turner family. The Table Turners is a literary family tale filled with hopes, dreams fulfilled, tragedy and loss all set against the backdrop of New Orleans. Initially the characters are poised and set in one way, only to be repositioned and moved in another. After all, change is inevitable. ..The Table Turners will entertain readers and even make them cheer. ForeWord Clarion Review
