My Feet Talk to the Road: Gardenia's Caf

My Feet Talk to the Road, Gardenia's Café, holds a key to some of the episodic material contained in the short stories. Each of the characters may be seen as representing some aspects of the Major Arcana found in Tarot cards. In addition, the characters may be viewed as spirit guides who enjoy interaction with Gardenia, the owner of the Café. Readers might like to be informed that Gardenia was a real person who used to read tea leaves and cards, and was an incredible seer. These vignettes reflect some of the typical members of her clientele who appear very fond of telling stories and expanding on archetypal aspects of family interrelationships.
