Encrypted Times

Very happy to have my short story, Encrypted Times, in a new book from the marvellous Exile In The Margins, Desire Path. Tune in to the ghost-trace memory dust of Stephen and his cadre of disappeared 1990s Hampstead weirdos. Click the picture for more details, ordering etc. And raise a glass to Stephen next time you’re sitting outside The Flask.

Five short journeys by five writers/artists. Civil War encounters. Post-work ennui. Childhood myths. Subterranean portals. Soho ghosts. Silent wanderings through woods. With contributions by Derek Gray, Julian Hyde, Neil Jackson, Martin Jones and Rik Rawling.

IS80 – Sinclair at 80

Delighted to be included in an illustrious array of company for this special book for Iain Sinclair to mark his 80th year. My piece, A Man Could Lose Himself In London, tells of a chance encounter with Iain in a London street a year or so before we properly met.

A unique tribute to a remarkable writer, film-maker and walker, in an edition of only 400 numbered copies – each signed by Iain Sinclair – this 192 page A4 illustrated publication features over 170 contributors, including Peter Ackroyd, Caroline Bergvall, Keggie Carew, William Gibson, Xiaolu Guo, Philip Hoare, Toby Jones, Stewart Lee, Esther Leslie, Rachel Lichtenstein, Robert Macfarlane, Jonathan Meades, Dave McKean, Michael Moorcock, Alan Moore,  J.H. Prynne, Denise Riley and Marina Warner.

Featuring original essays, poems, images, letters and reflection from writers, artists, musicians, publishers, friends, critics, booksellers and readers, it is not only a celebration of a unique body of work but also a de-facto history of the last 60 years in experimental literature and culture.

It is conceived and edited by Gareth Evans, and designed by Joe Hales Studio.
