R. K. Duncan writes about fairies, ghosts, and melancholy from a ramshackle apartment in Philadelphia, supported by an inflated ego and his saintly fiancee. In the absence of the expected cats, he lavishes his attention on cast-iron cookware and expensive German knives. Before writing, he studied Linguistics and Philosophy at Haverford college. He wanted to be a wizard when he grew up, and this has not changed.
