Inspired by arresting moments in history—like the storming of an art school by state police officers in pre-WWII Berlin, like the preternatural darkening of the mid-day sky in Revolution-era New England—Christine Beth Reish’s fiction explores themes of resilience, identity, and the search for truth as her characters (both fictional and historical) struggle to understand themselves and the times in which they live.
Christine Beth Reish lives and writes in beautiful Bucks County, Pennsylvania. An early version of her first manuscript, FAÇADE, was a top semifinalist in Amazon’s Breakthrough Novel Contest. An excerpt of the story was subsequently published in the literary journal Conclave: A Journal of Character. Her second novel, DARK DAY, is nearing completion.
