I’m a writer based in Berlin.
My debut novel, Poor Ghost! was published in 2025 by Sceptre Books. It won a Betty Trask Award and received reviews in Literary Review, The New Statesman, Review 31, TLS, and Esquire.
You can buy Poor Ghost! from Bookshop.org or most bookshops in the UK. An audiobook version narrated by Maxim Reston is available from the usual places.
My writing has appeared in Five Dials, Best British Short Stories, Review 31, Minor Literature[s], and Lighthouse Journal, and I was shortlisted for the White Review Short Story Prize in 2020.
I’m currently working on a PhD in Literary Practice at the University of Warwick, for which I’m writing a second novel and a thesis on Theodor Adorno’s literary criticism. I also co-edit the website creativecritical.net with Irina Dumitrescu and Thomas Karshan.
If you would like to say hello, you can write to me directly via this form or contact my literary agent, Matthew Marland at Rogers, Coleridge and White.
