Autorenporträt
Caroline Kellems, a native Californian, graduated Phi Beta Kappa from UCSB upon completion of a degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, with a study emphasis in English literature. A few years later she received a Master's Degree in Education from Framingham State College. In 1985, she joined the Peace Corps and was sent to Guatemala. For three years she walked the countryside visiting distant villages and teaching peasants how to build fish ponds and raise fish to feed their families.It was here in the green fertile lands of Central America she met her husband, Eduardo Godoy, whose family has been involved in coffee for generations. Intrigued by the culture and people of Guatemala, she felt compelled to write The Coffee Diary, a novel influenced by her family's life and an expression of love for her adopted country. The Coffee Diary was released in September 2010 by MacAdam/Cage Publishers.The prevalence and acceptance of drug lords in Guatemalan society inspired her second book, The Poppy Field. She and her husband own a coffee plantation in Guatemala and a coffee roasting company in Guatemala City. Caroline spends her time between North and Central America, working and writing.
