Dennis Jung is the author of eight novels, two of which were selected as a finalist in the New Mexico-Arizona annual book awards. His use of visual imagery and his strong sense of place are what make his novels as much an escape to a geographical location as to the emotional landscape of his characters. Tapping into a background in anthropology, he weaves into his stories a sense of the mystical and the universal in the human experience - the drama and conflicts that consume us all, regardless of culture. Mr. Jung lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico. More about his books, including excerpts and essays, are available on his website: www.dennisjung.com.
