Let Collection Development keep you current …

As we approach mid-winter, our Collection Development professionals have winter sports and crafts and hobbies on their minds.

This month, we sit down with Francisco X. Stork

Francisco X. Stork was born in Monterrey, Mexico, and moved to the United States when he was nine. He studied Latin American literature at Harvard before completing a law degree at Columbia University. Publishers Weekly praised his first novel, The Way Of The Jaguar, as a “splendidly intense debut.” His second book, Behind The Eyes, was selected as both a Commended title for the Americas Award and a New York Public Library Book for the Teen Age. His latest novel, The Last Summer of the Death Warriors, will be released in March 2010.

Francisco works as an attorney for an affordable-housing agency in Massachusetts. He lives near Boston with his wife.
