Explora Books to Showcase The Book of Laural at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair
Born from grief and transformed into wonder, The Book of Laural by Jennifer Davis Deckert will be featured at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair (June 17–21) at the Explora Books exhibition booth at CNCC in Beijing. Part fantasy, part elegy, the novel follows a luminous soul named Laural across millions of years, countless incarnations, and the furthest reaches of the universe—guided always by her mischievous fairy companion, Jaja.
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 21st May 2026 – When Deckert’s sister and lifelong bandmate, Laural, passed away on Christmas 2021, the author found herself writing not an obituary, but an origin story. What emerged was a sweeping metaphysical adventure rooted in a profound truth: energy cannot be created or destroyed—it simply changes form. In the novel, Laural’s soul reappears across the ages as a gentle brontosaurus, a singing rodent, a curious dolphin, a medieval peasant, and ultimately a human woman, accumulating wisdom and love with each new life. The story’s exploration of reincarnation and spiritual transformation gives the book a distinctive place among contemporary fantasy fiction.

At the heart of the story is the unlikely bond between Laural’s ever-changing soul and Jaja, a stubborn, sharp-tongued fairy who refuses to become mortal—until she can no longer resist. Their friendship, stretching across dinosaur-era swamps, ocean depths, alien planets, and medieval villages, becomes the emotional spine of the novel. Through their adventures, Deckert explores timeless questions: What draws us back to the people we love? What do we owe each other across lifetimes? And what does it truly mean to “go home”? These themes of love, destiny, and soul connection make the novel especially compelling for readers of philosophical fantasy and speculative fiction.
Music runs through the novel like a second heartbeat. From the dawn chorus of prehistoric rodents to the haunting calls of dolphins, from an underground Star Choir blazing inside a distant star to the drums of early humans on a moonlit shore, sound becomes a sacred language—one the soul carries from life to life, growing more complex and beautiful with each incarnation. Deckert, a musician who played drums alongside her sister for more than two decades, weaves her own grief and artistry into every page.
The novel does not shy away from darkness. Persecution, destruction, environmental loss, and human cruelty all appear—not to inspire despair, but to illuminate the radical power of compassion. Through the character of Volaris, a tormentor whose soul slowly transforms across many lifetimes, Deckert offers a quietly radical vision: no soul is permanently lost, and a single act of witnessed kindness can plant a spark that takes centuries to bloom.
Deckert’s The Book of Laural is a love letter written across time—to a sister, to the natural world, and to the belief that the souls we cherish never truly disappear. It is a story that begins before the dinosaurs and ends at the edge of a cliff called Rebirth. In between, it asks readers to listen more carefully to the music all around them.
Attendees of the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair will have the opportunity to check out this visionary work of fiction. The Book of Laural is also available on Amazon and through other major book retailers.
