A LABYRINTH: Michael J. Wilson in conversation with Steve Roberts

  • Deep Vellum Books & Publishing 3000 Commerce Street Dallas, TX, 75226 United States (map)

A Labyrinth is a lyric retelling and reimagining of the myth of Daedalus and the Labyrinth. It recounts the story through the poetry of the forgotten, the designs of yearning, and the threads of desire. Told from alternating perspectives, A Labyrinth tells the story of Daedalus and Minos from the perspective of those whose lives were destroyed by their actions.

Michael J. Wilson is a writer and editor living in New Mexico. His first two books were poetry, then he jumped ship to fiction-like things. When not writing books, he helps build immersive experiences at Meow Wolf.
