According to John Barth, Fort Wayne native Michael Martone's fiction "combines remarkable originality with a keen eye, deadpan humor, and an amused, massively knowledgeable obsession with his native Indiana." Martone's latest book is FOUR FOR A QUARTER. He is also the author or editor of twelve other books, including THE BLUE GUIDE TO INDIANA, THE FLATNESS AND OTHER LANDSCAPES, and DOUBLE-WIDE: COLLECTED FICTION OF MICHAEL MARTONE. He teaches in the Creative Writing Program at the University of Alabama and the MFA Program for Writers at Warren Wilson College.

This event is sponsored by the Creative Writing Program in the department of English.
