Two young women are sent to a North Carolina resort to recover after illnesses. One is a cultured New Yorker, and the other -- the Louisiana of the book's title -- is a beautiful but unpolished country girl. Both find themselves out of their element at the resort, so they band together and become fast friends -- and learn a lot about what it means to be different in the process.
