I'm a Brooklyn-based novelist, screenwriter, and musician. I wrote "We All Looked Up" (a New York Times Bestseller) and "Thanks for the Trouble." My newest book is "The Anchor & Sophia," first in a trilogy set in a future North America which, for asteroid-collision-related reasons, has regressed to 19th century technology levels (oil lanterns, covered wagons, whiskey used as anesthetic, etc.).

As a musician I've released an EP with Decca/Universal Records, as well as a companion album for my first novel. I also makes music videos, including one that was exhibited at the Guggenheim Museum.

Luciano Bianciardi

Luciano Bianciardi (Grosseto, 1922 – Milano, 1971) è stato uno scrittore, giornalista, traduttore, bibliotecario, attivista e critico televisivo italiano.
Contribuì significativamente al fermento culturale italiano nel dopoguerra, collaborando attivamente con varie case editrici, riviste e quotidiani. La sua opera narrativa è caratterizzata da punte di ribellione verso l'establishment culturale, a cui peraltro apparteneva, e da un'attenta analisi dei costumi sociali nell'Italia del boom economico, tanto che alla finzione narrativa si mescolano spesso brani saggistici che sfociano sovente nella sociologia. Legato per formazione e per scelta a tematiche classiste e libertarie, avrebbe dato all'impegno letterario il senso di un diretto engageme
