Dominic Knight

    Dominic Knight si è fatto conoscere come co-fondatore del giornale satirico The Chaser, dove ha affinato il suo acuto ingegno e la sua sensibilità ironica. Dopo lo scioglimento della pubblicazione, ha proseguito con vari progetti satirici, ma ha gradualmente spostato la sua attenzione verso la narrativa. I suoi romanzi, spesso ispirati all'esperienza personale, esplorano temi di disillusione e politica con la sua caratteristica miscela di sarcasmo e acuta osservazione. La voce distintiva di Knight offre una prospettiva fresca sui problemi sociali contemporanei.
