David LeBrun is a multi-lingual French-Canadian author. With a gritty and minimalist style, his writing draws from his travels and offbeat perspectives. His short stories have appeared in Blank Spaces Magazine and Caesura. Delirium Vitae is his first of three memoirs. He lives in Montreal, Quebec, where he plays hockey, consults on screenplays, and works as a technician in the art department of the film industry.
""LeBrun writes with the peculiar velocity of Denis Johnson. This is a book rich with wild language and a big-hearted journey into human confusion."" — Joshua Mohr, author of Model Citizen ""…a wayward, knife-edge adventure told in expressive detail... evocative of a real-life Alice in Wonderland."" — Frankie Martinez, Independent Book Review ""Delirium Vitae is a gritty, hallucinatory memoir… LeBrun's prose is raw, lyrical, and unvarnished…But there's also a quieter, more haunting theme of belonging and alienation. This is the quality I loved most."" — Hannah Sward, author of Strip ""LeBrun is a fresh and appealing new voice. Delirium Vitae reads like a novel."" — Diane Young, author of See No Evil ""The book moves through moments that hit like waves...Messy and alive in a way most books don’t get to be."" — Maudlin House “‘What’s hard about holding on to a job? Try holding on to a dream,’ writes David LeBrun in Delirium Vitae. LeBrun held on to his dream—setting off on the adventure that would transform and define him—and now he’s got a gritty, rollicking, and heart-breaking memoir to show for it. I put it on the shelf with Bukowski, Fante, and Kerouac.” — John Julius Reel, author of My Half Orange
