Jack & Emily is available (or go to the book distributor asterismbooks.com). Set in Greece in the late 1980s, Jack & Emily is about love and the CIA, with cameos by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and a mid-level al-Qaeda operative.

I have published four novels, Still Life with Insects, I Know Many Songs, But I Cannot Sing, The River Gods, Jack & Emily, and two books of fiction exercises, The 3 AM Epiphany and The 4 AM Breakthrough. I have received Whiting, Guggenheim, and NEA writing fellowships as well as residencies at the MacDowell Colony, Millay, and Yaddo. I taught at the University of Denver, Ohio University, the American University in Cairo, and The City College of New York.

Here is an essay, by Steve Himmer, about me—in Necessary Fiction, and some Goodreads reviews of my work.

And this is one of my favorite stories, from The Iowa Review.
