Megan Hunter

Megan Hunter is a British novelist and poet whose spare, poetic fiction explores motherhood, the body, and ecological catastrophe. She studied English at the University of Sussex and Cambridge. Days of Light is part of her body of work that includes The End We Start From, a spare, lyrical novel about a woman fleeing London with her newborn baby after a catastrophic flood. Her fiction is characterised by its poetic compression, its visceral engagement with the body, and its exploration of what endures when everything else is stripped away. Her audiobooks and books offer listeners and readers spare, luminous literary fiction about survival, motherhood, and the body — prose distilled to its purest essence.
