Emma Straub is the author of Laura Lamont’s Life in Pictures, and the short story collection Other People We Married. Her latest book The Vacationers, out this month from Riverhead Books, is an irresistible, deftly observed novel about the secrets, joys, and jealousies that rise to the surface over the course of an American family’s two-week stay in Mallorca.Her fiction and nonfiction have been published in Vogue, New York Magazine, Tin House, The New York Times, Good Housekeeping, and the The Paris Review Daily. She is a staff writer for Rookie. Straub lives with her husband and son in Brooklyn. Owen King's epic debut novel, Double feature, about a young man coming to terms with his life in the process and aftermath of making his first film, is out in paperback this June. In the book Filmmaker Sam Dolan has a difficult relationship with his father, B-movie actor Booth Dolan—a boisterous, opinionated, lying lothario whose screen legacy falls somewhere between cult hero and pathetic. Allie, Sam’s dearly departed mother, was a woman whose only fault, in Sam’s eyes, was her eternal affection for his father.
“Double feature is a beautiful, wrenching beginning, and Owen King is a young writer of immense promise.” – Larry McMurtry

Her writing has been published in The Fairy Tale Review, Post Road, and several anthologies.

Moderator SUZANNA HERMANS is co-owner of Oblong Books & Music with her father Dick Hermans.
