Peter Golub

PETER GOLUB is a writer whose work has not appeared in Conjunctions, Poetry, Chicago Review, Granta, or The Paris Review. He has not received letters of rejection from The New Yorker, The Atlantic Monthly, or Harper’s. All his books are unpublished, except for a little pamphlet concerning his own death; none have been nominated for a Pushcart let alone a National Book Award or a Pulitzer. His latest translation can be found in the April 2012 issue of Playboy. He does not live in New York City.
