Having failed penmanship in the fourth grade, under the austere vigilance of his mother, Carol, jonathan schork became a prolific writer by his early teens (though his penmanship was still-- and remains-- atrocious). Taking inspiration from the elegant, antiquated prose of Isak Dinesen, Rudyard Kipling, F. Scott Fitzgerald, & J.R.R.Tolkien, schork's fiction is decidedly old-fashioned, with a devotion to the finer points of English grammar, syntax, vocabulary, & punctuation (one will, for example, never encounter a split infinitive in a schork story). His copious canon of non-fiction, written in the essay form, are elaborate & labyrinthine, in the manner of such scholars & philosophers as Stephen Jay Gould, David Quammen, & Malcolm Gladwell.
