Dan Fante

Dan Fante vuonna 2007

Dan Fante (19. helmikuuta 1944 Los Angeles, Kalifornia – 23. marraskuuta 2015 Los Angeles, Kalifornia) oli yhdysvaltalainen prosaisti ja runoilija.[1] Fanten tyyliä on usein verrattu yhdysvaltalaiseen kirjailijaan Charles Bukowskiin. Hänen rankkaa kuvaustapaansa on kutsuttu ”soul fictioniksi”. Fanten romaanit ovat vahvasti omaelämäkerrallisia. Kirjoissa seikkailevat elämän runtelemat hahmot. Rankan kuvauksen vastapainona kirjoissa esiintyy paljon mustaa huumoria.

Fante syntyi ja kasvoi Los Angelesissa. Hänen isänsä oli kirjailija John Fante. Dan Fante keskeytti koulunsa parikymppisenä ja lähti tien päälle, päätyen lopulta kahdeksitoista vuodeksi New Yorkiin. Hän kokeili ennen kirjailijanuraansa monia erilaisia pätkätöitä ja työskenteli muun muassa ikkunanpesijänä, puhelinmyyjänä, yksityisetsivänä, huonekalumyyjänä sekä monissa muissa erilaisissa pienipalkkaisissa töissä. Dan Fante asui Los Angelesissa. Hän oli naimisissa ja yhden lapsen isä.

Fanten kirjoja on julkaissut Suomessa kustannusyhtiö Sammakko.
