Joseph Adam Lee is a Franco-American writer whose work exposes the quiet madness of ordinary life.

Once known for his hellraiser antics, he has since turned that same fire inward—writing poems and stories that trace the raw nerve of the human condition: drinking, women, drugs, work, faith, and the quiet ache of trying to mean something.

Forged by the working class, he writes with the pulse of a man who’s lived on both sides of ruin and redemption. His style is conversational, honest, darkly funny, and unflinchingly self-aware.

Now based in New York City, he continues his exploration of the fine line between virtue and vice in life.
