Jack Houghteling is an American novelist and the author of Goodman (2022) and Sunnyside (2023).
Early life and education
Houghteling grew up in Hastings on Hudson, New York and graduated from the Hackley School in 2010 and Claremont McKenna College in 2014. [1] [2] At the latter, he delivered the student commencement speech at graduation. [3] He later earned a graduate degree from the London School of Economics in 2015 before moving to New York City. [4] [5]
Works
Houghteling began Goodman in 2015 but then put it aside for years. [1] It was later longlisted for the Dzanc Books Prize for Fiction. [6]
Sunnyside is about an ex- football player from Westchester County [7] and received acclaim among independent literary outlets. The podcast The Drunken Odyssey called it a "maximalist masterpiece," describing its style as "neomodernist." [8] The literary journal Socrates on the Beach published an excerpt of Sunnyside, [9] which it characterized as "sui generis” and “unlike almost any other contemporary fiction." [10]
He is currently working on a third project about pre-revolutionary New York. [11]
Personal life
In 2018, Houghteling ran for the New York State Senate as a Democrat in Brooklyn's District 18, but never made it to the primary election ballot. [12] [13]
He lives in Upper Manhattan with his partner and daughter. [14]
