Sequoia Reads: Don't Stop the Carnival
Our mega-cruisers are back from the islands with smiling faces, tanned bodies, and lots of stories and fond memories. How many were tempted to leave the rat race and retire to the islands? Perhaps open a little hotel?
In Don’t Stop the Carnival, Norman Paperman, a New York press agent, and his friend, Lester Atlas, leave the cold, but glamorous city, to look at a little Caribbean island hotel that Norman saw advertised in the New Yorker Magazine. Norman, with Lester’s assistance, buys the hotel and settles in to enjoy the Caribbean while sipping Planters Punch. Very quickly he begins to learn of the pitfalls that await the novice owner.
Join us on Thursday for a discussion about this book, led by Jane Olcott. All mega-cruisers are welcome to join us and regale us with your first hand stories!
