Author Description
Paul Di Filippo is the author of hundreds of short stories, some of which have been collected in these widely-praised collections:
The Steampunk Trilogy
,
Ribofunk
,
Fractal Paisleys
,
Lost Pages
,
Little Doors
,
Strange Trades
,
Babylon Sisters
, and his multiple-award-nominated novella,
A Year in the Linear City
. Another earlier collection,
Destroy All Brains
, was published by Pirate Writings, but is quite rare because of the extremely short print run (if you see one, buy it!).
The popularity of Di Filippo’s short stories sometimes distracts from the impact of his mindbending, utterly unclassifiable novels:
Ciphers
,
Joe’s Liver
,
Fuzzy Dice
,
A Mouthful of Tongues
, and
Spondulix
. Paul’s offbeat sensibility, soulful characterizations, exquisite-yet-compact prose, and laugh-out-loud dialogue give his work a charmingly unique voice that is both compelling and addictive. He has been a finalist for the Hugo, Nebula, BSFA, Philip K. Dick, Wired Magazine, and World Fantasy awards.
Despite his dilatory ways, Paul affirms that the sequel to
A Year in the Linear City
, to be titled
A Princess of the Linear Jungle
, will get written in 2008. He has two books forthcoming from PS Publications: the collection entitled
Harsh Oases
and the novel titled
Roadside Bodhisattva
. His 2008 novel
Cosmocopia
is graced by
Jim Woodring
illustrations.
Paul lives in Providence, Rhode Island.
