Adam Bertocci is an award-winning filmmaker, screenwriter and author working in and around New York. He is a proud graduate of the film program at Northwestern University, with a surprisingly useful minor in English literature. His first book, the Elizabethan mashup Two Gentlemen of Lebowski: A Most Excellent Comedie and Tragical Romance, kicked off as a worldwide viral sensation and enjoyed a sold-out run as the fastest-selling show in New York indie theatre history before being published by Simon & Schuster. He has contributed to The Guardian, The Toast, McSweeney's Internet Tendency, The Morning News and Splitsider, and continues to dabble in both prose and non-fiction, with a wide variety of stories and essays available for perusal and purchase. In film, he has penned all manner of produced shorts, most notably the Mickey Rooney Christmas comedy Wreck the Halls; he has also written and directed a double-digit quantity of low-budget short films for the festival circuit. His work has been praised by Entertainment Weekly, USA Today, The New Republic, GQ, The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, Back Stage, Broadway World, E!, Maxim, IGN, Wired, io9, Film Threat and his parents. The Sorcery of White Rats is his first novel. Much of it is spelled correctly.
