Mark Leyner — American Author

Mark Leyner is an American postmodernist author... (wikipedia)

I don't walk around chuckling all the time. My outlook is very bleak. It's worse than bleak, it's apocalyptic.
My work generally tends to be an all-out, 360-degree subversive take on everything, most of all my own notion of myself as a son, father, husband, human being and male in this culture.
The interesting thing about something in the back of your mind is that it can travel pretty far back in your mind.
I always thought of my work as being animated by a spirit of unhinged generosity.
My relationship with my readers is somewhat theatrical. One of the main things I try to do in my work is delight my readers.
