The Resource Almond, Steve

Description: Steve Almond writes both fiction and nonfiction. He embraces the bizarre, the freakish, the unusual. He does so with disarming honesty, rare perception, and wicked humor. Almond is also a good storyteller, suffusing his prose with good-natured mockery and gentle self-deprecation. Whether he's explaining precisely how a Idaho Spud candy bar is made or discussing Michael Jackson's penis, his unexpected turns of phrase and deadpan humor are sure to delight and provoke. Be warned: he frequently writes about sex and other faintly ridiculous matters. Start with: The Evil B.B. Chow (Fiction); Candyfreak (Nonfiction)
