Hello. I’m a writer of nonfiction and fiction. My latest book is Every Living Thing: The Great and Deadly Race to Know All Life, now available from Random House (US), Doubleday (Canada), and Quercus/Riverrun (UK). I’m also the author of A Sense of the World, available in several editions and translations. Puppies are nice, but old dogs have a dignity we could all learn from. You ever know an old dog that didn’t have dignity? Anyway, nice of you to visit. Feel free to poke around.
