joe-carroll
Professor of literature at Winslow University. I was married to a beautiful woman, named Claire Mathews-Carroll. We met at Winslow University, where she and I were both tenured professors. We also have a wonderful little boy, named Joey. / / My first book, The Gothic Sea, was published in 2003. The Gothic Sea was inspired by Edgar Allen Poe's last and unfinished work, The Light-house. Like Poe, I believe the eyes are your identity and windows to your soul, and especially love Poe's equating death with beauty. I'm a firm believer in the insanity of art and that it should be felt, both physically and emotionally. / / See you around, / Joe C.
