Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

David Homel is the award-winning author of nine novels and five works of fiction for younger readers, the latter co-authored with Marie-Louise Gay. In 2021, he ventured into the field of the personal essay with the memoir Lunging into the Underbrush: A Life Lived Backward (LLP 2021), which--part medical memoir and part speculation about the love life of older women and men--led Homel to return to the slippery field of self-discovery and the remodeling of the past. This compelling new book is a meditation about one writer's education through a series of essays mixing memoir and fiction, truth and make-believe.
