| | Bookreporter.com - Author Profile: Michel Faber |
 | | Faber's work has been described as a combination of Roald Dahl and Franz Kafka, as Somerset Maugham shacking up with Ian McEwan. |
 | | Born in the Netherlands in 1960, Faber emigrated to Australia at the age of seven and has lived in Ross-Shire, Scotland, since 1992. |
 | | The title of Michel Faber's first novel, UNDER THE SKIN, is a metaphor for how, despite our differences, people are all very much the same --- and that sameness includes predilections for cruelty. |
