Abstract / Summary

Ellis Sharp is the author of sixteen novels (including two works of autofiction – Lamees Najim (2015a) and the lockdown journal Twenty-Twenty), seven collections of short fiction and a collection of reviews and critical essays drawn from a now defunct blog, The Sharp Side. His fiction is predominantly anti-realist and experimental in form, playing with established narrative traditions and genres, and using devices favoured by a diverse range of modernist and post-modernist writers.

Sharp grew up in Sussex and Hampshire, the son of a father who served in the British army around the world, including the Middle East. His godfather was a wealthy foxhunter. After leaving grammar school he joined the civil service, working for the Department of Employment.
