Author Information

Guy Kennaway is a writer of fiction and memoir. He is best known for his novels ONE PEOPLE, about village life in Jamaica, BIRD BRAIN, about a bunch of optimistic pheasants, and for his memoir TIME TO GO about killing his mother (with her permission). His novel, THE ACCIDENTAL COLLECTOR, won the Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize for Comic Fiction in 2021. His latest memoir is FOOT NOTES, a broad comedy about race and nationality which he wrote with his relative Hussein Sharif. And his most recent novel is Good Scammer. 'In all my writing my aim is to delight and amuse, ' Kennaway has said. 'Hopefully I make people laugh out loud. Laughter is our most effective weapon in the battle against the difficulties and struggles of life. If I can transport my reader to a happy, joyful world, my mission is successful.' Hussein Sharif was born in Kenya in 1996. He came to Britain when he was 8, living in Tottenham, and attending the University of Kent 'for a bit'. Foot Notes is his first book.'I like to float about; many things happen to me that shouldn't happen, and things turn out to be blessings in a weird kind of way. I love family, traditional food, and try to be a good Muslim, though often fail.'
