Distortion

Gautam’s first novel Londonstani (2006) was internationally acclaimed and sold over 20,000 copies.

The New York Times called it 'breathless, hilarious and convincing', while the Guardian wrote that 'Malkani skilfully highlights the intersection of machismo and consumerism'.

This is truly a novel for our times, grappling with fake news, toxic masculinity and lives spent increasingly online at the cost of real human connections.

The author will be available for events on publication.

There are estimated to be 700,000 young carers in the UK – Distortion tells the story of one of them.
