"San Francisco Chronicle" Duane raids elements of the road novel, the buddy movie, coming-of-age and rite-of-passage narratives, reformulating them all. His unmistakably Northern California style combines pop culture savvy and eco-celebration, while his soft-shouldered urbanity manages to reinvest irony with genuine sentiment.
Daniel Duane is the author of Lighting Out: A Vision of California and the Mountains and Caught Inside: A Surfer's Year on the California Coast. He has written for The New York Times Magazine, Esquire, Men's Journal, Outside, GQ, The Los Angeles Times Magazine, and The Village Voice. He lives in San Francisco.
