Craig Wells is an author of contemporary literary novels set in Los Angeles and Oregon and inspired by the satires of Voltaire,
the Native American novelist, Sherman Alexie, and John Steinbeck's social commentaries. Always a dog lover and an avid
sports fan, he recently became more passionate about soccer. Earlier, while in his fifties, he adopted a wolf. In his literary life,
he confronts crimes against humanity and lost chances for redemption. His novels, whether about middle-grade or young adult heroes, elevate us beyond despair. They give us hope. We are worthy of love and forgiveness. Even the author who has survived fifty years of bipolar disease.
