Deborah Clearman
Dear Librarian,
I love magic. The beauty of fiction is that anything can happen. García Marquez, Salman Rushdie, Isabel Allende, Alice Hoffman make magic real. I went to Guatemala to live in a place where magic is ordinary, and the extraordinary is normal.
TODOS SANTOS follows Catherine Barnes, a down-to-earth American woman at a time of personal crisis, on her journey of self discovery, as she and her rebellious teenage son lose their way in present day Guatemala.
Holly MacArthur, Managing Editor of Tin House, calls TODOS SANTOS "an exotic, timelyand timelesstale of love, fear, sex, death and renewal."
Best-selling author Joyce Maynard says, "With a perceptive eye for detail and knowledge of the human heart, Deborah Clearman introduces us to characters who are both utterly unlike any we have encountered on the page before, and utterly believable."
TODOS SANTOS comes with a Reading Group Guide in the back. In addition, I am available to visit any book group within driving distance of New York City. Just contact me at deborah@deborahclearman.com.
Thank you, librarians, for introducing readers to the world of imagination.
And please visit my website at deborahclearman.com to see a video of me in Guatemala and learn the story behind the novel.
Cheers,
Deborah
