About the Book

Author Andrew Ross spins a poignant and magical tale with The Sweet and Bitter Taste of Moonshine, his rich and multilayered novel of the American South that has humanity's classic, most-often-asked existential questions at its core. Ross paints a deftly rendered portrait of this beautiful and deeply historied landscape with this utterly palpable backdrop as the novel's setting.
Ambrose Wells, a young man with virtually no loved ones, has a dead-end job he despises assessing property for tax purposes for the state. He is given the assignment to travel to Wellspring Island, a mysterious piece of land owned by Mr. Peyton Grimball-the enigmatic local hermit-in the middle of St. Helena Sound. Ambrose reluctantly drives to his childhood home, Edisto Island, a place he has often avoided in adulthood due to its inherently painful reminders of his past.
While there, Ambrose meets a cast of remarkably fascinating characters who serve to help him connect the dots that could shed light on the murky details of his past-both his childhood and family history. During his time spent on Edisto, Ambrose is put to the test, and he is forced to make a decision: return to his sad but comfortable existence, or drink from the proverbial fountain of youth? His choice could lead him to the discovery of a life filled with new meaning-a life where, for the first time, Ambrose is able to experience true joy.
About the Author: Andrew Ross was born in Toronto, Canada, but grew up in Cohasset, Massachusetts, and graduated from the University of Richmond in Virginia in 2002. After completing medical school in Norfolk, Virginia, he went on to complete a residency in emergency medicine in Charleston, South Carolina. He now currently lives in Savannah with his wife, Maggie, and their daughter Josephine, where he works as an emergency physician. A love of all things literary-especially history, biographies, and the classics-helped shape his interest in writing. Outside of literature, he enjoys traveling, mountaineering, skiing, scotch, and soccer. His goal for his novel, The Sweet and Bitter Taste of Moonshine, was to create a story that appeals to both those readers with an interest in history and philosophy, as well as to anyone who loves a good saga that spans the centuries and is set in the American South.
