Add to basketCarandel was a sculptor who saw the world differently, a man who shaped raw emotion into stone, and one who carved truth instead of likeness.
This story is set in Gran Colombia, a short-lived republic that united the territories of modern Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, and Panama under Simón Bolívar's leadership from 1819 to 1831.
When the republic began to fracture, political tensions and chaos erupt in Bogotá, and an unknown sculptor, Carandel, dared to capture the anguish of a nation.
Unfortunately, his work was condemned as subversive, and his name was erased from history.
Two centuries later, a historian discovers Carandel's unapologetic creations and has a hunger to rediscover what has been buried.
This is the story of two lives shaped by exile, fracture and longing which intersect in a journey that is at once inevitable and transcendent.
This is a story for anyone who wonders what remains of us when the world forgets that we even existed. This is a story for those who wonder about forgotten people or even forgotten artists, buried truths, and fractures in history that echo through time.
Vincent Gilvarry is a writer from tropical North Queensland in Australia, a multifaceted author with a rich and vivid imagination.
With a foundation in the visual arts, his transition into the realm of literature was sparked by a life-changing situation that inspired him to embark on a literary career and an odyssey that has lasted for over 25 years.
He boasts an eclectic repertoire that highlights his versatility across various genres and his fantasy fiction books in particular are a testament to his unparalleled imagination and to his narrative prowess.
