Jonathan Santlofer is an internationally recognised artist with more than a hundred exhibitions around the world.

This is his first novel. At Snowbooks, we believe that the key to success is a fresh approach. We choose to publish books that we think are marketable, but we must also adore the titles we pick. We like to let our authors decide their level of contribution: some might only want a check in the mail; others are quite happy to accept or reject anything we can send their way. We embrace the large booksellers for the important role they play, but we wouldn't like to lose touch with the independents, as we're only small ourselves.
