Hello, I’m Gabriel. My debut novel, Poor Ghost! is out now with Sceptre Books. It has been reviewed in Literary Review, The New Statesman, and Something Curated, was featured on Esquire’s 2025 summer reading list, and was the subject of an interview feature in the May, 2025 edition of The Berliner.

Poor Ghost! is available from Waterstones, Foyles, Blackwells, and Bookshop.org in the UK and from Dussmann and Buecher.de in Germany, as well as at most local bookshops. An audiobook version narrated by Maxim Reston is available from Audible and Google Play.

My writing has appeared in Five Dials, Best British Short Stories, Review 31, and Lighthouse Journal and I was shortlisted for the White Review Short Story Prize in 2020.

I’m doing 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 aesthetic theory. I also co-edit the website creativecritical.net with Irina Dumitrescu and Thomas Karshan.

I live in Berlin with my wife and in my spare time, I play football for SC Falco Subbuteo.

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.
