Luke B. Goebel, who teaches creative writing courses at UT Tyler, will have his award-winning novel, Fourteen Stories, None of them are Yours, taught in its entirety in a creative writing course at NYU. He is an assistant professor of English.

The first two stories also will be used in a creative writing course taught at Columbia University.

The book was cited in Brooklyn Vol. 1’s, September Book Preview of 15 new books worth reading. A review says: “As Goebel’s narrator endeavors to push the reader away, he draws them in closer, both from the wounds at the heart of this book and for the structural ambition that runs throughout it.”

For more information, contact Goebel, 903.566.7458 or lgoebel@uttyler.edu.
