Stephen Markley


Stephen Markley is an American journalist and author, whose work includes memoirs and novels. He was born in Ohio and is a graduate of Miami University and the Iowa Writers' Workshop.
Markley's first novel Ohio takes place during a single evening. His second novel The Deluge is a dystopian epic about climate change spanning the years 2013 through to the 2030s. The New York Times review said of it that the "dystopia is realistic and nuanced, grim but playful, setting Markley’s book apart from the tsunami of recent climate-change literature."

Markley is reportedly working on an adaptation of Ohio for an HBO series to be produced by Sam Levinson.
