Iain Landles

Iain Joseph Robert Landles is an English playwright who writes mainly avant garde and experimental plays.

Time Out said of The Siege: "Landles' fierce poetic style, together with his themes of political and sexual depravity, might make you think of Howard Barker, and you'd not be far wrong.

"[2] Landles is a controversial playwright, experimenting with theatrical form (see Seventh Day Respite, 2007, and Accelerating Expansion, 2008), language, character, and narrative.

His confrontational style of writing has made him few friends in the theatrical world, and his unique voice is known for its lack of compromise.

[4] He finished his first novel KK: A Death in January 2009, and has completed 1920: Variations on a Theme of Masculinity which was published by Black Opal Books in August, 2017.
