Omer Friedlander

BIO

Omer Friedlander’s debut story collection, The Man Who Sold Air in the Holy Land has received the highest praise. From Nicole Krauss, “A beautiful debut by a deeply humane writer.” Kirin Desai calls the stories “[as] outrageously funny as they are outrageously tender… A spectacular collection," and Rebecca Makkai hails Friedlander as “a marvelous new voice, bringing magic, chance, and surprise. I’d follow this writer anywhere.” Bestselling author Anthony Marra offers this praise: “In these wise, capacious, achingly beautiful stories, Omer Friedlander maps the hidden geography of the human heart like a young Chekhov.”

 

Omer Friedlander received a B.A. in English Literature from the University of Cambridge, England, and an MFA from Boston University. His short stories have won numerous awards, and have been published in the United States, Canada, France, and Israel. Friedlander’s first novel, The Glass Golem, is forthcoming from Random House.
