published: Arianna Dagnino’s Transcultural Writers and Novels in the Age of Global Mobility

March 16, 2015

Now published, Arianna’s book in which, in the context of transcultural writing, some of my work is written about with uncommon insight. From the book description: >> In Transcultural Writers and Novels in the Age of Global Mobility, Arianna Dagnino analyzes a new type of literature emerging from artists’ increased movement and cultural flows spawned by globalization. This “transcultural” literature is produced by authors who write across cultural and national boundaries and who transcend in their lives and creative production the borders of a single culture. Dagnino’s book contains a creative rendition of interviews conducted with five internationally renowned writers—Inez Baranay, Brian Castro, Alberto Manguel, Tim Parks, and Ilija Trojanow—and a critical exegesis reflecting on thematical, critical, and stylistical aspects.< <

Updating site! New pages for new books!

January 21, 2015

I’ve been updating this site this morning (coffee and email have also featured). Thanks to web designer Elise Clark-Higham for new book pages under the Books menu (I get to fill them in), in anticipation of new titles soon to be published by the Local Time Publishing Project. Two short prose collections will be next: short stories collected as “7 stories of magic, romance and fabulation”; and 2 novellas set in the 1960s. After that will come a memoir, completed a few years ago, called “Local Time: a memoir of cities, friendships and the writing life”, then my recently completed novel, set in Berlin, called “Ghosts Like Us”.
