He was a punk before you were a punk...the one and only Chris Walter.

Local author Chris Walter, CEO and bottlewasher of GFY press, has quickly become a force to be reckoned with in the underground literary world.

His novels are simple, yet complex, oft channelling Stienbeck and Buckowski.

His eclectic cast of lovable characters, and what a cast they are, are quirky and flawed, but undeniably human.

These elements combine to make Chris my all time favourite author.

I had the chance to sit down with Chris to disuss his life, his career, and Vancouver, particularly the DTES and the music.

Thanks again so much to Chris Walter!

Look for Chris' new book Personality Crisis: Warm Beer and Wild Times August 8th.

Enjoy!
