About me
I’m a fiction writer and journalist. My debut novel, You from Another Life, is forthcoming from Chatto & Windus in the UK & Commonwealth and from Doubleday in the US. It will also be published in translation in Germany, Italy, Spain, Greece, Brazil, Estonia, Croatia, Slovakia and Czechia.
I currently work as an editor at Semafor, and over the past fifteen years have reported for outlets including The Times of London and Agence France-Presse from China, Hong Kong, India, Malaysia and Mexico.
I won the Royal Society of Literature's V.S. Pritchett Prize in 2017 and 2018. My short stories have been published in the anthology Megacity and magazines Prospect and Riptide, and longlisted for the Commonwealth and BBC Short Story Prize and the BBC Short Story Award. In 2019 I was selected for the inaugural London Library Emerging Writers Programme.
