Welcome Lisa Vihos, author of The Lone Snake

We’re happy to announce that we will publish The Lone Snake: The Story of Sofonisba Anguissola.

The novel captures the life of Renaissance artist Sofonisba Anguissola using real and invented characters and a fictive memoir that brings readers into the artist’s intimate life. Vihos’ portrait of life in the 16th century is a rich tapestry that blends art history, romance, and verse to tell a timeless tale of what it means to create.

Read the full description and advance praise for this stunning debut novel.

Vihos is not new to Water’s Edge Press. She co-edited the poetry anthology From Everywhere a Little: A Migration Anthology. She’s also a contributor to The Aging Poems. The Lone Snake is her first novel. Read more about her on our Author’s page or at lisavihos.com.
