Once you enter, there's only one escape.Michael Sonbert is a New York born novelist, whose dark expeditions into the world of sex, drugs, and violence, are at once shockingly real and fantastic. His original brand of hip, character-driven literary fiction focuses on the things we do to ourselves when we hate ourselves, and what it means to be young, addicted, and unloved. Sonbert's literature is born not out of lectures and writing classes. His is more the visceral, instinctual work that reminds one of early Charles Bukowski and Jack Kerouac. As he bleeds his beautifully violent brand of poetic prose onto the page, he creates riveting characters that traverse gripping plotlines that are equal parts lovely, disturbing, psychedelic and pulse pounding. As a member of The Biggs, a New York writer's collective, Michael presents his work regularly at venues such as Bowery Poetry Club, KGB Bar, and Cornelia Street Café, where he captivates audiences with his rapid-fire, high energy performances. Sonbert unleashes his alter-ego while singing and co-writing songs, for his Rock n' Roll band, The Never Enders. www.TheNeverEnders.com.

Their latest effort, Dance Party In Hell, was released in May 2008 on Chamberlain Records. www.ChamberlainRecords.com
