Ariel Dorfman

Ariel Dorfman is considered to be one of "the greatest Latin American novelists" (Newsweek), and one of the United States' most important cultural and political voices. His numerous works of fiction and nonfiction have been translated into more than fifty languages, and his plays have been produced in over one hundred countries. They include Death and The Maiden, which was made into a film by Roman Polanski and is scheduled for a revival on Broadway as soon as the reopening of theaters allows it. His most recent publications are the novel Cautivos and a children’s story, The Rabbits' Rebellion. His next book, The Compensation Bureau, is forthcoming from OR Books. His writing frequently appears in the New York Times, the Guardian, The Nation, the Los Angeles Times, CNN, and The New York Review of Books, as well as many other magazines internationally. He is an emeritus distinguished professor at Duke University and lives in Durham, North Carolina with his wife Angelica.
