High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Michael Chabon is an American author and "one of the most celebrated writers of his generation", according to The Virginia Quarterly Review. Chabon's first novel, The Mysteries of Pittsburgh, was published when he was 25 and catapulted him to literary celebrity. He followed it with a second novel, Wonder Boys, and two short-story collections. In 2000, Chabon published The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, a critically acclaimed novel that John Leonard, in a 2007 review of a later novel, called Chabon's magnum opus; it received the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 2001. His novel The Yiddish Policemen's Union, an alternate history mystery novel, was published in 2007 to enthusiastic reviews and won the Hugo, Sidewise, and Nebula awards; his serialized novel Gentlemen of the Road appeared in book form in the fall of that same year. His work is characterized by complex language, the frequent use of metaphor along with recurring themes, including nostalgia, divorce, abandonment, fatherhood, and issues of Jewish identity. He often includes gay, bisexual, and Jewish characters in his work.
