Real Name: J. Wiegold
About Me: Writer and guitarist; I also play drums at an amateur level and release my pieces for guitar and drone/electroacoustic music under my own name. I completed my undergraduate degree in English Literature and my Master's in late-realist and modernist writing. I generally read the novels and history of the Victorian era (primarily Trollope and Hardy) as well as early-mid twentieth-century modernism (Laski, Kawabata, Ditlevsen, Murdoch, Morante, Ginzburg). I also read philosophy and literary theory, particularly twentieth-century French, Frankfurt and Essex School theory, and some contemporary writers like Cusk, Tokarczuk, Ernaux and Giannisi.
