The Mime
The Mime
Description
The Mime, is a story that is set in Oaxaca, Mexico about a young girl, Florina who helps a mime retrieve his voice that was stolen from an evil magician, who changed the world; in doing so she discovers her own voice and changes the world back to a better place. It's a story about self-discovery, finding one's voice and using it to change the world.
In a world that is not quite as it seems Florina helps a mime find his voice that was stolen from an evil magician.
Oaxaca, Mexico is the cornerstone of this fantasy tale that is torn a part by magic. A journal left behind for Florina becomes a window into her past and the door that binds together the real world and the alternate world the magician created and rules.
It's a journey of aspiration, facing fear, and temptation in an attempt to finding true meaning in oneself, truth in all and the discovery of one's voice.
Love, vengeance, and desire are the driving forces for Florina, the mime, the muse, the magician, the artists and all who try to discover their own voice but a final magic act defies the voices of all in a world that is not what it appears to be.
"A fantastical middle-grade story about finding the power in your voice. Tutalo knows exactly where he's taking his reader, and the dark motifs transform into something quite brilliant, leading the narrative down an intricate path of intrigue and twists. The city of Oaxaca is drawn exquisitely to the point of making it into a magical place, transporting the reader. The Mime is a wonderfully realized fantasy that is wholly unique in the genre."
