about this author

Jonathan Papernick's first collection of short stories The Ascent of Eli Israel was published by Arcade Publishing in 2002 and received a full-page review in the New York Times and a starred review in Publishers Weekly. His first novel entitled, Who by Fire, Who by Blood was published by Exile Editions in 2007. The Jerusalem Report called it "...a fast-paced thriller ...frightening ...a finely drawn picture of a human being unraveling."

His second collection of short stories There is No Other will be published by Exile Editions in the spring of 2010. Author Dara Horn wrote about There is No Other, "Every single story here delivers a knock-out punch that will leave you reeling long after you've put it down -- and revising your thinking on what life and love really mean."

Papernick is currently reworking his second novel 'Sharpy' a picaresque about a would-be con man who sells the Brooklyn Bridge to an Irag War widow.
