With the publication of her first novel, The Perfect Pearl, Kelly Huddleston enters the arena of contemporary literary fiction. Miss Huddleston's narrative voice is clear and concise, her characters are filled with depth and irony, and her themes are both critical and neoteric. Her prose is blended in the styles of both classic and popular fiction; and her ever-engaging story travels in carefully outlined, concentric circles, arriving on cue at the denouement to reveal a poignant insight.
Kelly Huddleston has been writing since childhood, and her approach to the craft is a fundamental one. "I try to tell a compelling story, in which the reader can see countless aspects of himself. Each novel must be in some way an allegory of the reader's own experience. The novel must speak to life's critical issues. That is its strength as a literary form."
Colorado born and raised, Kelly Huddleston now resides in Corfu, Greece.
