Set in 14th century France, WATERMARK is the story of how a mute girl uses her father's paper to find her voice and tell the truth about beauty and love in a world that has little of either.  Vanitha is at work on her next novel, another historical set in Venice, Italy.  We can’t wait to see it.

Vanitha is represented by MARLY RUSOFF AND ASSOCIATES.
