It was a wonderful day at the Ponteilla-Nyls library. I presented my new book, Esperança, exclusively, along with its historical context. This play exists in two versions, one in French and one in English. During the conversation, I detailed the writing process and its origins. A member of the audience read an excerpt for the 10th annual Nights of Reading. Esperança will be published very soon, and several copies have already been pre-ordered for print-on-demand and/or digital reading. This pre-order is part of a future purchase. A big thank you to everyone; the adventure continues with Esperança.
