Michael Nath

His first novel, La Rochelle (2010), was shortlisted for the 2011 James Tait Black Memorial Prize for Fiction.

[2] It was described by The Times Literary Supplement as "a wonderful exercise in novelistic virtuosity, strange and beautiful.

"[3] His most recent novel, The Treatment,[4] (Quercus, 2020), was a critical success: The Guardian (Michael Donkor: "it is the voices and the language that make this novel such a triumph");[5] iPaper (Sarah Hughes: "His writing is addictive, sometimes strange, often beautiful");[6] Arts Desk ("A London novel to join the greats");[7] Morning Star (Paul Simon: "beautifully vulgar");[8] Tablet (hailed by AN Wilson: "Some of the most interesting dialogue I’ve read in years … a fantastic book");[9] Metro (Anthony Cummings: "a maverick project that defies comparison").

Look at […]  The Treatment by Michael Nath; if novels are going to survive, novelists have a responsibility to push the boundaries."

Nath is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Westminster, London specialising in modernism and creative writing;[17][18] his work has been featured by the Tate Gallery.
