Derek Owusu: one of Granta’s Best of Young British Novelists

15 April 2023

Granta have announced their 2023 Best of Young British Novelists. Every ten years the list attempts to identify the twenty most significant British novelists under forty, and among this year’s cohort is our own Derek Owusu, author of Losing the Plot.

It’s a great and richly deserved accolade for a writer who is already producing incredibly rich and distinctive work. You can see Granta’s list of books by this new generation on bookshop.org now. Congratulations to Derek and to all the writers.
