A story of love, loss, and reincarnation Spanning the years
1930-2016, Drops of Cerulean chronicles the lives of Ilona, the
daughter of a Greek restaurateur, who marries into a prominent
Houston family; her son, Cadmus, who becomes a professor and then
moves into a retirement home after his husband passes away; and
Delphina, an anxiety-ridden woman with a mysterious recurring
dream. Ilona and Cadmus have a falling out when Cadmus is a young
man, and before they are able to reconcile, Ilona dies. Cadmus is
plagued with guilt and feels responsible for the death of his
mother. Two worlds collide when, years later, Delphina comes to
understand that she had been Ilona, Cadmus's mother, in her
previous life. Well written and engaging, Drops of Cerulean deals
with topics such as socioeconomic class, LGBT rights and
acceptance, reincarnation, and past-life regression. Set in Houston
and revolving around the city's ever-changing skyline, Drops of
Cerulean is an amazing debut from a gifted writer.
