The Murmur of Bees was a wonderful book. Please tell me you will be translating the rest of your novels to English soon!?!

Sofía Segovia Hello, Katrina!
I don't get to see my messages in Goodreads, so it took me ten months to read your message. I'm sorry! The good news is that Tears of Amber is out since May. I hope you enjoy it too!

Ana asked Sofía Segovia:

Hi Sofía, there was a lot I liked about El Murmullo de las Abejas, but I had a lot of trouble with the racist and classist portrayals of some of the characters. Can you explain why you made the choice to have the "good guys" be fair-skinned wealthy landowners, where as the "bad guys" are Indigenous landless peasants? (Was this a critique that I missed? Or was it unintentional? Do you regret the choice?) Thanks!

Dear Wonderful Writer, what was your inspiration for writing such a fantastic novel? I immersed myself in it and I adored each word and character. Thank you for writing it!

A Goodreads user asked Sofía Segovia:

Sofía, después de terminar de leer El Murmullo de las Abejas ( es el libro que mi grupo de lectura en Austin, Texas escogió para leer este mes) yo sigo fascinada con la historia y con tu estilo de escribir. Sin exagerar, creo que has logrado algo sublime, Tengo la siguiente pregunta: Consideras que el “idealismo mágico” de Novalis aplica a El Murmullo de kas Abejas?
