Jazmina Barrera, a native of Mexico City, is an award-winning author. Her new book "On Lighthouses" is equal parts personal memoir, literary history, and observations on lighthouses.
“Barrera's obsession is contagious. Her graceful sentences ensnare tidbits of history and tantalizing glimpses of her own life, accompanied by delicate sketches of lighthouses she's visited, making this book a refuge from everyday life, a place of enchantment and safety.” —Shelf Awareness.
