Katrina Jackson

    Táto autorka, cez deň profesorka a cez víkendy spisovateľka romancí, skúma vo svojej tvorbe témy lásky a medziľudských vzťahov s ostro kritickým pohľadom, zasadeným do rámca aktívnej predstavivosti. Jej písanie, ovplyvnené láskou k romantickým komédiám, sa vyznačuje prenikavým vhľadom do ľudskej povahy.

      "2010. Helping pack up his childhood home was going much easier than Amir expected. The only sticking point is the record collection his father Alonzo refuses to put in storage. When Amir asked his father why he needs to keep all those records with him, Alonzo offers to tell him a story instead. Monterey Pop Festival in 1967. Alonzo was a baby music reporter at the Village Voice on his first big assignment. By his side is photographer Ada Carr who is all brown skin, big afro and sharp tongue... Over the course of two weekends, over forty years apart, Alonzo imparts a soundtrack of love and life to Amir that bridges the past and present and they both learn how to say goodbye." -- cover, page [4]
