Auto Antenna: An Enchanted Guide to Santa Fe & A Vague Blueprint to the Cosmos by Stavo Mustang Craft blends elements of memoir, fiction, and inspirational guidance into a captivating narrative. Set against the vibrant and mystical backdrop of Santa Fe, the story follows Cybilline, a charismatic and enigmatic figure who has become part of the town’s artistic and spiritual fabric. As she navigates her life in a turquoise 1959 Ford Galaxie, she explores the rich tapestry of art, magic, and spirituality that defines this unique locale. The narrative structure is fluid, mirroring the exploratory and often whimsical journey of its protagonist. The book is rich with poetic observations and a charming sort of fantasia that invites readers to look at their own lives through a new, vibrant lens. Craft’s depiction of Santa Fe as a fertile ground for artistic and spiritual exploration makes the city a central character in the story, offering endless possibilities for discovery and self-expression.

Stavo Mustang Craft’s writing is lyrical and insightful, weaving complex themes of personhood, identity, and destiny with a light, engaging touch. Cybilline, a therapist for artists, offers deep psychological insights into the creative process and the construction of self, both humorous and heartfelt. Her experiences and reflections entertain and enlighten readers about living a life deeply intertwined with art and spirituality. Auto Antenna is a beautifully written novel that serves as a love letter to Santa Fe and the lives of those drawn to its unique cultural blend. It is an enchanting read for anyone interested in the intersections of art, identity, and the magic of a place that inspires both. Readers who enjoy Patti Smith and Tom Robbins will not want to miss Auto Antenna.
