A treat for readers who know his work and for those who come upon his writing for the first time. He's not a household name and it is puzzling why he doesn't have that kind of celebrity. If a good book is a cure for insomnia, he will keep you awake and thinking and wanting more. Mr. Keifetz has lectured on writing and the creative spirit over the years at book festivals and seminars around the country -- in little cities and big -- Glens Falls, NY, Las Cruces, NM, Cincinnati, OH, Chicago, IL --to name a few. He's published literary criticism, poetry, and has had plays produced. Sweet, Sour, and Sad is his first collection of unpublished works. His new bi-lingual novella, The Smoking Contest (in English and French), is on press. Mr. Keifetz was married to the late Joyce Engelson, a legendary editor in book publishing.And their daughter, Mandy Keifetz, was the fiction winner of the 2010 AWP Award Series with her novel, Flea Circus.
