Autorenporträt
Joe (Giuseppe) Costanzo was born in Pedivigliano in the mountains of Calabria in Southern Italy, a town not unlike the fictional Roccamonti in his novel Restoration. Both of his grandfathers were so-called "birds of passage" who frequently traveled back and forth between Italy and America and were the inspiration for his novel The Grand Junction. A veteran newspaper reporter, Joe covered some of the biggest news stories in the Intermountain West, experience that served him well in the writing of his debut novel, Graphic Times, as well as his later work, De Anima(L). His most recent work, Geodysseus, is a literary science fiction novel set in the American Southwest against a Cold War backdrop.
