A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Take a journey to a sleepy Costa Rican beach town and into the heart and spirit of a Costa Rican man full of love, philosophy, and stories. Whether traveling to Costa Rica to surf and explore, or looking for light but profound verses about life away from its shores, this book is a perfect companion, offering readers a generous serving of food for thought and humorous glimpses into everyday life in the land of ¨pura vida.¨ Harlow F. Newton Jr. a.k.a. ¨the Carver,¨ and ¨el Abuelo,¨ is at times deep, at times utterly romantic, and at times surprisingly witty. So sit back and relax into this unique collection of poems, short stories, and thoughts by a bigger-than-life individual who lives by his own rules and who fuses together his life of multiple identities into timeless insights and verses - and if you are fortunate enough to visit the land of ¨pura vida¨ in person, don´t forget to stop by his carving station, a well-known part of the local Dominical landscape.

Biographie de l'auteur :

Anyone who has had the chance to meet Harlow F. Newton Jr., ¨the Carver,¨ on Dominical Beach will tell you that he is so much more than an artist writing and carving words of love, watching the waves and searching for wisdom. Born in San Jose, Costa Rica into an influential Guatemalan-U.S. family, he has been a soldier, employee, business leader, entrepreneur, and gardener before discovering his gift as an artist and author. In 2010 he published one of his 7 romantic comedies, ¨Baboon in the Elevator.¨ One of his favorite personal mantras is: You harvest what you plant; if you plant love, you will harvest love.
