Here are 3 illustrations that I did this week for my mother-in-law's new novel (really 3 novellas), American in Translation. Her name is Concha Alborg and she is one hell of a cook and can turn any room in the house into a page from the Pottery Barn. The synopsis of her book is somewhat autobiographical: Spanish girl marries U.S. Marine during Vietnam War, divorces the Marine, wrestles with the death of her mother, feeling tossed around like a cork on the ocean between Spanish and American culture, wrestles hard with her past while trying to build herself a fulfilling future as an artist and sexualized feminist, emerges, finally, as a writer and college professor, mother, grandmother and subscriber to the New Yorker.
