Stephen Thorne plots a sensational production of a Greek tragedy in order to
ruffle feathers in the small city where he lives. Accompanied by an eccentric
and fly-by-night cast and crew, he prepares for opening night, unaware that as
he unleashes the play, he has drawn the attention of ancient and powerful
forces.
Michael Williams’ Vine
weds Greek Tragedy and urban legend with dangerous intoxication, as the drama
rushes to its dark and inevitable conclusion.
ABOUT
THE AUTHOR
Michael
Williams was born in Louisville, Kentucky. Much of his childhood was spent in
the south central part of the state, amid red dirt, tobacco farms, and murky
legends of Confederate guerillas. He has spent a dozen years in various parts
of the world, Vermont, New York, New Jersey, Wisconsin, with stopovers in
Ireland and England, and emerged from the experience surprisingly unscathed.
Upon
returning to the Ohio River Valley, he has published a series of novels of increasing
oddness,combinations of what he characterizes as “gothic/historical
fiction/fantasy/sf/redneck magical realism” beginning with Weasel’s Luck (1988)
and Galen Beknighted (1990), the critically acclaimed Arcady (1996) and
Allamanda (1997), and, most recently, Trajan’s Arch (2010). His new novel Vine
will be released this summer.
He
lives in Corydon, Indiana with his wife, Rhonda, and a clowder of cats.
