Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Allan began writing stories in high school and won a poetry competition judged by John Berryman in college. Under a Fulbright-Hays scholarship, he analyzed the socio/political, satirical works of Aziz Nesin, a Turkish writer widely read in the Middle East and in the Turkic Republics of the former Soviet Union, for his Ph.D. dissertation. He speaks Turkish and loves to travel in Turkey where he was a Peace Corps Volunteer and later worked for the Ford Foundation. While making a living in part by writing public documents without attribution, Allan practiced story-telling to his children and grandchildren. This is his first personal publication.
