Judy Keeslar Santamaria

    Judy Keeslar Santamaria creëert verhalen die baadden in magisch realisme, en duikt in de complexiteit van familiegeheimen en -nalatenschappen. Haar vertellingen bevatten vaak onconventionele heldinnen die het opmerkelijke vermogen bezitten om tegenstanders te slim af te zijn en te floreren. Santamaria's onderscheidende stem ligt in haar fantasierijke benadering van verhalen vertellen, waarbij het fantastische wordt vermengd met diepgaande menselijke ervaringen.

      Welcome to the Jetty Cat Palace Café where synchronicity and wonder abound! Morgen, a quirky music teacher and pianist, is devastated when she learns that her mother, also a concert pianist, became pregnant with her after a sexual assault and abandoned her life as a performer. Startled when a steel string explodes inside her piano, Morgen sees secrets long buried inside the music she and her late mother had cherished. Risking her career and heartbreak to rectify her mother's lost dreams, Morgen vows to find her mother's stolen cremation urn and track down her mystery father. Following an irresistible melody that resonates from her family's obscure past, she arrives at the Jetty Cat Palace Café where she finds offbeat locals, feral cats, and even a ghost. But a secret lies in wait for Morgen beneath the café's scarred wood floor, and though she hopes that a bittersweet spiritual connection will resolve her shared history with her mother, she must first reconcile her past and present.
