Michael Califra

Michael Califra’s books are examinations of individuals resisting or succumbing to events in a world that is often absurd.

Califra lived and worked in Germany, mostly in Berlin, from 1986 to 1998 where he wrote the novel, "No Man's Land."

Wanting to document the place he knew would soon dissolve into history was the motivation behind writing his novel.

The author has also executive produced feature films starring suc

I came late to writing. No, that's wrong. I came late to publishing my writing. And what a thrilling ride it's proving to be.

There was an old black and gold typewriter knocking about my childhood home. When I wasn't skinning my knees climbing trees or wandering aimlessly in the countryside with my dog and my dreams, I could be found, as now, typing away with imaginary friends wh
