About the author

Alejandro Jodorowsky was born to Ukrainian Jewish immigrants in Tocopilla, Chile. From an early age, he became interested in mime and theater; at the age of 23, he left for Paris to pursue the arts, and has lived there ever since. A friend and companion of Fernando Arrabal and Roland Topor, he founded the Panic movement and has directed several classic films of this style, including The Holy Mountain, El Topo and Santa Sangre. A mime artist, specialist in the art of tarot, and prolific author, he has written novels, poetry, short stories, essays, and over thirty successful comic books, working with such highly regarded comic book artists as Moebius and Bess. Restless Books will be publishing three of Jodorowsky's best-known books for the first time in English: Donde mejor canta un pjaro (Where the Bird Sings Best), El nio del jueves negro (The Son of Black Thursday), and Albina y los hombres perro (Albina and the Dog Men).

He has translated works by Carlos Fuentes, Mario Vargas Llosa, Juan Carlos Onetti, Jos Donoso, and Jorge Volpi among others.
