According to the author, this book’s topics include communication and family secrets. These issues are frequently perceived as being either boring or challenging to talk about, but they should be understood since they have a big impact on family relationships and the dispositions of family members.
Maria Fernandez Snitzer, the author of “Storms,” grew up in the same small fishing town that serves as the setting of the book. She had always been influenced by her historian father. She used to accompany her father on his research trips.
One of the things he enjoyed doing was recording his interviews. He would sit and have the most enjoyable conversations while his Memorex tape was playing, and the author would hear his stories.
This interview with CBS Radio is one of the accomplishments this book has established. The author was also praised by Kate Robinson of the US Review of Books, acknowledging that “the author, a Louisiana native, writes elegantly of the literal and metaphorical storms that batter the generations in this literary family drama…”
Although the news bulletin confirmed her decision to evacuate, Elise didn’t want to hear another minute of forecasts, preparations, and predictions. Brad searched until he found a nice easy-listening channel and drove through the rain on surprisingly deserted roads. Apparently, the rest of the city heeded the warnings long before the Steiners.
As the car ventured through the quiet stillness of the calm before the storm, the children slept, while their parents and grandparents sat in silence, looking out at the Louisiana wetlands bordering the interstate highway.
At one point in their lonely journey, a caravan of paramedic units and ambulances passed them up in the left lane. Elise felt her flesh creep as she watched these people go by, imagining how frightened they must be, dealing not only with the pain and uncertainty of an illness but also with their sole reliance on total strangers to find a safe haven for them during the storm.
Each of those patients was someone’s mother or father, a grandparent, a sibling, or, worse yet, someone’s child. “Thank you, God,” she whispered again and turned around to look at each member of her family, as though she had to make sure everyone was still there with her.
