Author
Evie Wyld
Evie Wyld has lived in South East London for most of her adult life, with frequent trips to Australia, and to her family’s sugar cane farm in New South Wales. Much of her writing begins with the landscapes of her childhood, remembering being alone Out the Back and making up stories.
After doing the Creative Writing BA at Bath Spa University and the same MA at Goldsmiths University London, where she concentrated mainly on short stories, she spent three years writing her first novel After the Fire, a Still Small Voice which is published by Jonathan Cape in the UK, Pantheon in the US and Vintage in Australia.
She works in a small independent bookshop in Peckham, South London, called Review, and lives in Stockwell.
