Sohrab Homi Fracis‘s novel Go Home, featured in a cover story by Folio, has taken off since the last Jax by Jax. It was shortlisted by Stanford University Libraries for the 2018 William Saroyan International Prize for Writing, and brought him the SALA (South Asian Literary Association) Distinguished Achievement Award. He was the first Asian American to win the Iowa Short Fiction Award, juried by the legendary Iowa Writers’ Workshop, for Ticket to Minto: Stories of India and America. He was an Artist in Residence at Yaddo and Visiting Writer in Residence at Augsburg College.

We are thrilled to have him reading with us on Saturday, October 13th at the JaxbyJax Literary Arts Festival.
