Lynch, William: - William Elliott Lynch was born in 1951 in Niagara Falls, New York, and currently resides in Adairsville, Georgia, with his wife of thirty years and a circle of semi-feral cats who come and go as they please. After a lifetime of observing the absurdities and quiet tragedies of the human condition, he brings his keen eye and dry wit to the page in his debut novel, The Pigs Ate My Little Brother. With a voice both unflinching and humane, Lynch explores family, alienation, and the strange rituals that pass for normal in small-town life. This is his first published work.
