D.C. Monahan

    D.C. Monahan partage son temps entre une petite ville du nord du New Hampshire et un village de pêcheurs isolé sur l'île de Curaçao. Là, la découverte d'un lien avec un héritage juif perdu depuis longtemps a suscité un envol d'imagination qui s'est concrétisé dans son œuvre. L'écriture de l'auteur explore les liens profonds entre l'héritage et l'esprit créatif.
