Evan Dara

Evan Dara appears to be a pseudonym used by an unknown US author, who has published three novels and a play since 1995. There is almost no conclusive information about Dara, aside from the fact that he is probably male, allegedly resides in France, and started a self-publishing venture, Aurora Publishers, to publish three of his works. Dara's anonymity has had both positive and negative effects on his authorial career; while it may have scared off traditional publishers, it has also fueled online literary intrigue among a cult of devoted readers. He remains best known for his first novel, The Lost Scrapbook (1995), which employs postmodern literary techniques to examine a community affected by ecological disaster.
