Praise for Fingerprints of Previous Owners

“Entel’s delicately crafted debut explores the relationships between the resort, an economic center that distorts the island’s history for its own purposes, and the local people and the ways the past infuses the present, no matter how hard one tries to forget. Entel gives Myrna a distinctive voice and creates a rich history for the island and its residents.”

– Booklist

“Fingerprints of Previous Owners simmers with implicit and explicit violence, with social and economic injustices… Audacious, heartfelt and realistic, I found myself immersed in the perverted paradise of this island world and in the travails of the characters.”

– Maxine Case, author of All We Have Left Unsaid and Softness of the Lime

“Fingerprints of Previous Owners is a memorable debut. Through the force of her sure storytelling and graceful prose, Rebecca Entel makes the unseen visible, and the unspoken past powerfully present.”

– Sarah Shun-lien Bynum, author of Madeleine is Sleeping and Ms. Hempel Chronicles
