Cuban born and NYC raised writer, Cristina Garcia, just signed a deal for an undisclosed amount with publisher Knopf, a division of Random House. The deal is for Garcia’s fourth book, titled A Handbook to Luck. The story unfolds in Cuba, Iran, Salvador, and the U.S and deals with themes seen in her previous books, Dreaming in Cuban,The Aguero Sisters,and Monkey Hunting, namely the immigrant experience.
I have truly enjoyed all of Garcia’s books so far and congratulate her on the deal and wish her continued success. Make sure you go out and buy the book when it is released. I know I will. And in the meantime, catch up on reading her previous books.
