Amphibian

Tyler Wetherall is an author, journalist, screenwriter and teacher who lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. Her first book, the memoir No Way Home, about a childhood spent on the run with her fugitive father, was hailed as "Lucid, tender, exquisitely re-imagined and compulsively readable"; "wondrous and richly detailed" ; "a luminous memoir that nobody who reads it will soon forget". Her short fiction has appeared in the Gettysburg Review and Brooklyn Vol. 1, and she has written for Modern Love, the Guardian, Vice and Conde Nast Traveler.

'Has a queasily compelling power . . . Wetherall's prose is thick with the terror and wonder of those turbulent years of physical change, and comes laced with mythic, mystic resonances-and a rather disconcerting dollop of magic realism.'
