--Justin J. Murphy (talk) 06:26, 17 July 2010 (UTC)Justin J. Murphy, born June 26, 1980 in London, England, is an American novelist and poet. His writing is heavily influenced by his hometown of Los Angeles, California with a particular emphasis on sex, drugs, and dive bars. A nostalgic voice, Murphy has been published in various poetry journals and is widely known for his whiskey-soaked novel, Lorraine. He has been called the resonant voice for "generations of struggling artist twenty-somethings," and considered an echo to counterculture authors as Bukowski, Hunter S. Thompson, and Richard Brautigan.
