Description

They say that behind every successful man, there's a woman. And sometimes a squadron of re-inforcements for back up. The history of succession to the Spanish crown is peppered with a long line of political entanglements. But in times of social and political upheaval, it is sometimes more expedient to bypass the firstborn prince and install the long-lost American bastard son on the throne instead. And how, exactly, is he going to pull this off? Especially while he's on the rebound from heartbreak himself? Sounds like this gringo could use some help. Set in modern day Spain and the arid ranch lands of the American Southwest, Comanderas reminds us that it is often in the disintegrative experiences of life that we find the wisdom to grow deeper into our relationships with the people that have been placed in our lives. And that sometimes the relationships we find ourselves in are not of our own making. This book is not a romance, but rather a spectator's view of the good hearted fatuity of interpersonal communication in the Battle of the Sexes. Comanderas is the first novel by John David, a contemporary work of fiction at the intersection of sincerity and lo real maravilloso.
