She specialized in writing about islands, above all in the Caribbean and Mediterranean, with a focus on village traditions and nature. At the end of 2016, she abandoned her career and withdrew from the world; she now lives a cloistered existence somewhere in Asia. The location of her community, and whether it is Buddhist, Christian, Vedic, interfaith, or secular, are secrets she keeps to herself.Baez, Frank: - Frank Baez has published six books of poetry, a short story collection, and three non-fiction works. He belongs to the Spoken Word band El Hombrecito, which has produced three albums. In 2006, he received the Short Stories Prize of the Santo Domingo International Book Fair for You'll Have to Pay the Shrinks Yourself; and in 2007, the Salomé Urena National Poetry Prize for Postales. He was selected for the Hay Festival in 2017 as a member of Bogota 39, the best Latin American writers under forty. His work has been widely translated.
