Autorenporträt
James Clarke grew up in the Rossendale Valley, Lancashire, and after living in London and spending time overseas, returned to Manchester, where he now lives. His work has appeared in Ambit, Litro and Northwords Now magazines, and his debut novel, The Litten Path, is forthcoming from Salt.
Rezensionen
Clarke moves easily between the registers of class and entitlement, and poverty and disappointment. The landscape, of which he writes with relish, is raw and ever-changing. When his enthusiastic use of imagery works, it is lovely and apposite: a river "golden as chip fat", a mouth "heady with lipstick"... A ferocious portrait of a time and place, The Litten Path is an uneven book but an important one.
