Autorenporträt
Phil Laughing Crow Austin is the the author of five novels and a memoir. Born in 1953 during a cross-fire hurricane, he is a daily pactitioner of patience and forgiveness, a friend to honeybees and a connoisseur of snowflakes. Somewhere along the way he became a blues singer, a theater critic, a wooden boat whisperer, and a professional housewright. His first novel, a Christmas fable published in 1998, was hailed by Publisher's Weekly as 'a sharply etched tale reaching across cultures with universal spirituality.'
