Author Bio

Maxwell Conroe writes literary fiction focusing on existential questions – in short stories and novels. Maxwell’s passion lies in innovative writing about issues that matter. He uses the power of imagination to create prose in search for answers to existential questions. Fact and fiction blend seamlessly in his stories. Among his sources of inspiration are Guy de Maupassant, Jorge-Luis Borges, George Orwell, Anatole France, Washington Irving, Anton Chekov, Ivan Turgenev, Sonya Tolstaya, Leo Tolstoy, Nikolay Gogol, Franz Kafka and many others.

His short story bundles Mind Twisters (2022) and Magic Musings (2023) have been hailed with critical acclaim. Skeleton Point was Maxwell debut-novel, a spell-binding travelogue with brain-teasing apparitions in the Grand Canyon, USA. The maze of the Grand Canyon Trail System acts as a metaphor for how we must negotiate the pace and direction of our life path while encountering numerous physical and mental hurdles.

His latest book, The Meaning of Being, extends the author’s scene of action– while searching for answers to existential questions – from Skeleton Point (in the US Grand Canyon) to the estate of Leo Tolstoy at Yasnaya Polyana (in Russia’s Tula Province). From his burial mount, the resurrected Count Leo proclaimed a new series of Tolstoyan revelations, condemning the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
