I was born in Paris, in 1963, right in the middle of a western movie, of which my parents never saw the end. I have thereafter split my life between France and the USA, having spent most of my early childhood in Syracuse, and Seattle. After some studies, a lot of wandering and a few strange jobs, I have finally found myself teaching French literature in Denmark, where I have been living since 2007.

"DANGEROUS MINDS" INTERVIEW

"Imagine Kurt Vonnegut and Philip K Dick filtered through Burroughs and Brautigan, Ballard and Kerouac. Or put it this way: Sébastien Doubinsky is among the most important authors writing today, arguably in some realities the most important writer working today."

The Babylonian Trilogy by Seb Doubinsky
"I first encountered Seb Doubinsky’s city-states cycle in 2016, when the Dalkey Archive published the (author’s own) English translation of ‘Absinthe,’ which I purchased on a whim because I am a fan of French Literature, SF, and, primarily, the green " Read more of this review »
