Translations of an Incident
by Anjuelle Floyd (Author)
One truth begets another as the tale of a passionate confrontation in a restaurant travels from eyewitnesses to others not present. Each protagonist views the attack through an emotion-stained lens, the story taking on a life of its own as filtered through different individuals’ pasts, present, and futures. Ultimately, every character unweaves and re-braids their hidden truths and exposes the chain of inner mysteries that binds them.
The truth about children and secrets
Anjuelle's recent interview on San Francisco's daily show,
The View from the Bay
"Karmic truth, the effect of our decisions with our secrets and our deepest loves, comes back and squeezes the hearts of these characters. The elegant, super-rich, super-accomplished African Americans in Keeper of Secrets are as susceptible as anyone to conflicting passions, ones that may not be reconcilable in this world... Floyd pulls the reader into their lives without mercy."
- Clive Matson, author of Let the Crazy Child Write! and First Ten Songs
