Hari Kunzru

One of Granta’s 20 ‘Best Young British Novelists’, Hari Kunzru is an author and journalist with an impossibly long list of accolades to his name. A regular Port Eliot favourite, he’s also appeared at literary festivals from Hay to Hong Kong. His fiction tackles questions of identity and belonging in a style that merges the classic and the ultra-contemporary, while, as a journalist, he writes for the likes of Wired, Wallpaper*, the Guardian and the Telegraph.

Hari is the author of three novels: The Impressionist (2002), Transmission (2004) and My Revolutions (2007) and a short story collection entitled Noise (2005). The Impressionist – his first novel – won the 2003 Somerset Maugham award, The 2002 Betty Trask award, the Pendleton May first novel award and the John Llewellyn Rhys prize (which he declined).

“Hugely engaging… Rather like early Martin Amis, only nicer”.
– Carol Ann Duffy, The Telegraph

“Relives the darker side of sixties radicalism.”
– Tim Adams, The Observer.
