During that time, he published ten works of nonfiction. After what he describes as "a doozy of a mid-life crisis," he returned to his first love, fiction. Death in Venice, California was created in something akin to a fever dream, in that the author completed the work in just twenty-eight days as part of the National Novel Writing Month annual challenge. He has just completed a second novel, Glossolalia and works as a literary critic for the New York Journal of Books.ver menos
