Autorenporträt
Author of fiction dealing with people gleefully, or uneasily, living double lives--or people drawn to stressful experiences, for the purpose of emotionally maturing, even if they haven't rationalized it to that degree and are astonished at themselves--or people getting away with lots of unauthorized recreation on company time at corporate firms because not doing so would make them feel like they're being conned--or people so distractedly in love it's tantamount to hallucinating--or people who don't know what the bloody hell's happening in their relationship, only that it's addictive--or people flung into situations where it's tough to separate imagination from reality, reality seemingly vaporous when faced with emotional extremity--or people who love dogs, especially if said dogs are undisciplined and allow for orchestrating chaos in public places, as doing so, aside from the sheer enjoyment, is another means of exploring social boundaries. "Psychological" might be the single best word that describes Robert's work.
