Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Bruce Toien lives with his wife in Sherwood, Oregon. He has written stories and poetry since adolescence and has published two prior pieces: an analysis of T.S. Eliot's poetry in the DeKalb Literary Journal in the late 1970s and, more recently, a novel, The Yamhill Barber, which he also illustrated. He has bachelors degrees from the University of California in English Literature and Physics (and continued in the graduate program with a focus on high energy physics). Like his wife, Gail, Bruce is an avid outdoorsman, enjoying running, cycling and nordic skiing. In 2004 he joined a Norwegian ski trek across Spitsbergen Island near the North Pole. In the process of learning Norwegian, he wrote two poems in that language, which he later translated into English and those appear in this volume. He is currently working on a new science fiction novel based on his Spitsbergen adventure called Signatures in the Ice.
