Autorenporträt

Daniel Defoe (c. 1660-1731) was an English trader, writer, journalist, pamphleteer and spy. He is most famous for his novel, Robinson Crusoe, published in 1719, which is claimed to be second only to the Bible in its number of translations. He has been seen as one of the earliest proponents of the English novel, and helped to popularise the form in Britain.

Will Eaves is a novelist and poet. Murmur, his most recent novel, won the 2019 Wellcome Book Prize and was co-winner of the Republic of Consciousness Prize for Fiction. He has worked as Arts Editor of the Times Literary Supplement and Associate Professor at the University of Warwick. His work has appeared in the Guardian, the Yale Review and the New Yorker, and he is co-host with Professor Sophie Scott of The Neuromantics, a podcast on science and literature.
