M. Lalli Lassegard

is a polyglot with a penchant for collecting linguistic textbooks.

Though his linguistic study devours most of his time, he spends what remains of it delving into the depths of obscure musical groups from the 80s. He has a song recommendation for any occasion and will not permit anyone to think otherwise.

When writing, Lassegard strives towards a minimalist writing style that underlines the emotional lives of characters. His focus is on the mundane aspects of everyday life and how they can be crushingly oppressive, or delightfully surreal. He draws inspiration from themes of sociolinguistics, language identity, and social ambiguity. While his work can often delve into grim topics, he tries to weave a sliver of hope into his stories.

Above all, he hopes that his writing can resonate with others who may be in need of validation or comfort.
