I began my life in Derbyshire and Nigeria; was brought up Birkenhead, but escaped when I was 17; since then I have lived in Oxford, Paris and London, and (apart from an ill-advised 18 months in Nottingham) things have got a whole lot better! I mainly thank Kafka, Sissy Spacek, Marie NDiaye, and the early Manic Street Preachers.
