Quentin S. Crisp

Quentin S. Crisp (born 1972) is a British writer of fiction, essays and poetry.

His fiction often has a supernatural dimension, an otherworldly atmosphere or imaginative plot elements that defy a materialist view of realism.

Unlike the better-known personality of the same name, this Quentin Crisp was given the name at birth but, being younger, must use his middle initial to disambiguate.

He has a bachelor's degree in Japanese from the University of Durham, a master's degree in philosophy from Birkbeck College, and has spent two periods living in Japan, and Japanese literature is a significant influence in his work.

Crisp was responsible for the Chômu Press, publishing fiction by contemporary authors.
