A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Johnny Stanton was born in 1943 in Manhattan, the son of Irishimmigrants from Galway. He was an altar boy and Eagle Scout who attended Catholic schools and eventually graduated from Columbia University, where he fell in with many poets and writers of the New York School, including Kenneth Koch, Ted Berrigan, Ron Padgett, and Paul Auster. He published many of them, some for the first time, in his Siamese Banana Press, which started as a newspaper in 1972 and ended as a performance gang in 1978. He is the author of many short stories and the novel Mangled Hands, neglected by critics yet highly acclaimed by the readers who discover it. He has lived in the East Village for more than 30 years with his wife, the poet Elinor Nauen, a cat, and a lot of art.
