What People Say

"Kathleen
Popa's crystal prose captures the desert southwest like a Georgia
O'Keeffe painting. Her characters, at once unique and familiar, dance.
She shows us a desert of the heart, and then, with wisdom and insight,
shows us how to make it bloom. "
Dale Cramer, Author of Bad Ground and Levi's Will
"Every
so often a new writer comes along with a distinctive and imaginative
voice. Kathleen Popa is just such a writer. Her take on relationships
between her unique characters as well as the relationships between her
characters and God is original, vivid, and real. To Dance in the Desert is simply wonderful. "
Gayle Roper, Author of Caught in the Act and Allah's Fire
"There is magic in Popa's words; a quiet kind beauty that casts the same spell as a desert with its lingering afterglow."
Siri L. Mitchell, Author of Chateau of Echoes
"A book
that makes me laugh is a joy, a book that makes me cry is a rarity. But
a book that moves me to dance is sublime. To Dance in the Desert is a
spectacular experience. Beautifully written, deeply moving, and warmly
engaging—that this is Kathleen Popa’s first novel astounds me. That she
will quickly be counted among the top caliber of Christian novelists
delights me. I simply loved this book."
Kathryn Mackel, Author of The Hidden
"Kathleen Popa creates a
compelling vision of a small community’s power to coax waning spirits
back toward life. This gem of a novel worked on me like a dream. Popa’s
evocative prose captured the nuance and complexity of transformation
with equal parts mystery and truth. She conjures the deserts of Dara
Brogan’s life with intimate clarity, reminding us along the way of the
profound strength of what we take far too much for granted—the deep
friendship of kindred spirits. This is a journey worth taking."
Jeff Berryman, Author of Leaving Ruin
