Dori Dalton, Author
The Shamrock and The Feather is Dori Dalton's premiere novel and brings to life her passion for photography, the American West, and mysticism. Her gift of
storytelling was inherited from her parents and is illustrative of her German-Irish heritage. From her core came this believable tale
of lost love, ancient worlds and forgotten promises.
Dori has lived in Hawaii, Texas, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and presently, New Mexico. Her keen observation of the Four Corners region and its people,
folklore, and sacred sites are vividly captured in her poetic writing style.
In-depth research is second-nature in Dori's approach to fiction writing,
thereby enriching the reader's knowledge alongside the characters' personal journeys. The author believes that a smidgeon of truth always exists within
the fantasy. In The Shamrock and The Feather, Dori applies this perspective deftly as she blurs the lines between fact and fiction, and raises questions
about destiny and fate.
Dori's multi-sensorial epic portrays life beyond what the eye can see. In addition, the visionary soundtrack CD is a unique enhancement that replays
the story in the amphitheatre of the mind. Fueled by the desire to expand the written word, she convinced her husband, acclaimed jazz pianist Bert Dalton,
to translate scenes within the storyline into a musical interpretation. Together, their creative talents have produced a distinctive reading and listening experience.
The Daltons currently live in Santa Fe with their cats Bob and Sugar, and the sweet but willful Cocker Spaniel, Lily.
