Originally a freelance journalist, Rosa Jordan has published nine books: four non-fiction (two set in Cuba), four juvenile fiction (set in the US South), and Far from Botany Bay, her first novel for adults (set in England, Australia, and the South Pacific.) Whatever the form or geography, Jordan’s writings illuminate landscapes where social and political realities intersect with personal courage and compassion.
Jordan grew up in the Florida Everglades, attended university in California and Mexico, and emigrated to Canada in 1980.
