In Who Do You Think You Are? Reflections Of A Writer's Life, Joseph Torra ponders his thirty plus years as a poet, novelist, editor, publisher, and teacher. With both pathos and humor, Torra discusses the challenges he has faced as an author, husband, parent-and, as a person who struggles with bipolar disease.

He shares stories and insights on: growing up in a working class Italian-American Boston suburb, literary and other artists who have influenced him, painting, music, addiction, the publishing scene-past and present-as well as the importance of mentorships and community.

Who Do You Think You Are?, a courageous and frank portrait of an author, benefits all readers who hope to pursue an artistic career of any form.

"Torra's characters speak in an almost poetic cadence," said Boston Magazine. And Charlotte Innes of the Los Angeles Times wrote, Torra "Offers an intricate, sympathetic, sometimes outraged, always graceful commentary on the larger world."
