“A Light on the Magdalena” by Junelle M. Preston was displayed at the 2024 Los Angeles Times Festival of Books (LATFOB) – Book Gallery
“A Light on the Magdalena” by Junelle M. Preston was among the books displayed by Author Reputation Press during the 2024 Los Angeles Times Festival of Books (LATFOB) at the University of Southern California on April 20–21, 2024.
The LATFOB is considered to be one of the world’s most significant literary gatherings. It has been held every year since 1996 with the goal of bringing together the people who create books and the people who love to read them. It is attended by more than 550 authors, celebrities, storytellers, and hundreds of exhibitors.
The Los Angeles Times is the country’s biggest metropolitan daily newspaper, with more than 40 million unique latimes.com visitors monthly, a Sunday print readership of 1.6 million, and a combined print and online local weekly viewership of 4.4 million. The Pulitzer Prize-winning Times has been covering Southern California for more than 140 years.
Author Reputation Press once again showcased some of its amazing books in a wide selection of genres in this year’s LATFOB. This book gallery aims to connect readers and authors by exposing it at an event attended by audiences around the globe.
Junelle M. Preston was born in Australia and raised in Barranquilla, Colombia, near the Magdalena River. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Organizational Behavior and a Master’s in Human Resources and Organization Development from the University of San Francisco. She lives in Danville, California, with her family and their pack of noisy dachshunds.
“A Light on the Magdalena” by Junelle M. Preston is a compelling coming of age narrative presenting the story of young Ellie raised on Colombia’s Magdalena River in the 1960s.
It’s a simple, secluded life with her Christian missionary family in a magical environment where Ellie daydreams of romantic faraway places and people she’s only read about in her small collection of books received on birthdays and Christmases.
But life changes on her 12th birthday when two very different books arrive—Uncle Tom’s Cabin about American slavery and Anne Frank’s Diary of a Young Girl about hiding with her family during the Nazi regime of WWII.
