Mark Arax has been called a "21st Century John Steinbeck" for his books that pry open the soul of California.
He is a two time winner of the California Book award and a recipient of stanford University's William Saroyan International Price for Writing. His most recent work, "The Dreamt Land: Chasing Water and Dust Across California," a national bestseller, has been hailed by critics as one of the most important books ever written about the west. The New York Times has named "The Dreamt Land" and one of Mark's previous books, "The King of California," to a short list of California's best literature over the past 150 years.
