It was a great evening with a captive audience as David read excerpts of his novel in English, and I read in Spanish. A dynamic Q&amp;A followed, the audience was very engaged by David&#8217;s work. Reading the text to an audience made it come to life, it had a theatrical element to it. When reading the characters, I tried to capture their spirit and intent, \u00a0when narrating the story line, I aimed to paint the sequence using David&#8217;s delightful, textured language.<\/p>\n<p>We are currently trying to follow up with the audiobook version narrated by yours truly.
