by Noga Sklar (Author)
A legal immigrant from Brazil tells her daily experiences in the United States, as her homeland plunges into an unprecedented political and economic crisis, which culminates in the impeachment of the president. Meanwhile, she struggles to settle down in the U.S., working in both countries at the same time - through the internet - and building a house in South Carolina. In the background, history writes itself between terrorist attacks and Donald Trump's political trajectory toward the presidency. With a sharp wit and a strong ironic tone, Noga Sklar is a popular writer in Brazil, where she is well-know as a "cronista".
Author Biography
Noga Sklar was born in Tiberias, Israel, in 1952. She grew up in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, and lived for 30 years in Rio de Janeiro, a city she eventually left behind to take refuge in Serenity Valley, a paradise among the mountains of Petropolis. Noga met her American husband Alan Sklar in 2004, through the American Jewish dating site, JDate. This meeting gave new impetus to her life and literary career, inspiring her first novel, No Degree of Separation, published in English in 2016. She now lives in Greenville, SC, where she moved with her husband in October 2014.
