Nick Harkaway is the acclaimed author of Gnomon, The Gone-Away World, Angelmaker, Tigerman, Titanium Noir and Karla’s Choice. He is the son of John le Carré, and has aunique insight into his father’s work. The Guardian writes of Harkaway that ‘his great gift as a novelist is to merge the pace, wit and clarity of the best “popular” literature with the ambition, complexity and irony of the so-called “literary novel” – a rare combination which le Carré himself also achieved.’ He lives in London with his wife and two children.
