Bori Praper is a Slovenian musician, writer and translator, living in the Canary Islands. Currently he focuses predominantly on his slightly belated literary efforts (Bori published his first novel in English at the tender age of 36) as well as on "Cynicism Management", his progressive / alternative rock band; "Ray Kosmick", his psychedelic rock / indietronica / soundtracks alter ego; and a few shorter-term side projects.
Bori's debut novel "Cynicism Management", a satire with elements of sci-fi/cyberpunk, was published in 2013 by a small U.K. e-book publisher. In 2015, Bori decided to hop on the indie author train, so he published the updated 2nd edition of "Cynicism Management". In March 2016, he published "Pendulum Pet", his second novel. In 2019, the publisher River Boat Books saw fit to include Bori's debut novel Cynicism Management: A Rock & Roll Fable in its list of new releases for the summer/autumn of 2019.
Bori is currently collaborating with Rick Harsch on his "communal" novel titled The Assassination of Olof Palme. He is also writing Dog Days, the third book in the Cynicism Management series, as well as composing music for it.
