WHITE
T. Benjamin White is a literary critic and novelist. An Austinite from birth, White has deep roots in the State of Texas, including a BA in English Literature and a Master’s in Public Affairs, both from the University of Texas at Austin. He also spent roughly ten years teaching eighth and ninth grade literature in Austin (a much harder task than writing novels). As the founder of The Composted Books Review, White writes about books that enrich our lives, with a special interest in small press and mostly forgotten novels. He currently lives in Portland, Oregon, with his wife and kids.
