About the author

Verge Le Noir

<strong>Verge Le Noir</strong> is the author of the short story collection <em>Shell Casings,</em> the novella <em>Two Iguanas Lounge,&nbsp;</em>and the short novel <em>Desperados.</em> He has been, among other things: a laborer, a house painter, a bracero, a busboy, a bar back and a failed chordophone-lyre-plucker. In other words: He’s a jerk of all trades; master of none. In lieu of becoming a pornographer or a sommelier to the stars, and having a gift for spinning a tale or two since he was a wee lad, and at a time when art is quickly becoming a commodity, he foolishly decided to become a writer. Despite his cog in the machine status and a touch of misanthropy, he enjoys a great read, a good laugh, and a great fish taco. He currently lives in East New York, Brooklyn.
