Mark Canter was raised in a tiny farm town—population 400—along the Ohio River in Kentucky, where he and his family were the only Jews in the universe. Canter is the former Senior Editor of Men’s Health magazine, and his non-fiction also has appeared in The Baltimore Sun, San Francisco Chronicle, Denver Post, Miami Herald, St. Petersburg Times, Yoga Journal, Shambhala Sun, Writer’s Digest and other periodicals. His short fiction has been published nationally and his first novel was translated into Swedish, German, Polish, Dutch, Italian, French, Spanish, Catalan, and Japanese. Canter holds degrees in journalism and the humanities, with highest honors, and taught for seven years as an adjunct professor in the Florida State University Department of Religion. “I’m a true romantic,” says the author, “and by that I don’t mean that I always do something special for my wife on Valentine’s Day—although that happens to be the case. I mean that I believe in the Redemptive Power of Love. Every one of my novels expresses the same moral theme: Love (not power) is the only force that can render us fearless. “That’s also a central theme of Romanticism—the artistic, literary, and intellectual movement that began in Europe at the end of the 18th century and peaked in the 19th century, and included the works of Whitman, Emerson, and Thoreau. Another recurring idea that drove the Romantic Era is the revelatory wisdom and beauty of nature. My novels always explore the wonder and wildness, bliss and terror of the human body within the natural world (Eros writ with a capital ‘E’).”
