About the Author
Daisy Johnson is an acclaimed British author whose debut novel, Everything Under, marked her as a formidable voice in contemporary literature, earning the prestigious Booker Prize in 2018 and drawing comparisons to the mythic intensity of Angela Carter. Born in 1990, she studied English at Oxford University, where her fascination with folklore, language, and the supernatural first took root. Johnson's writing often explores the blurred boundaries between reality and the uncanny, delving into themes of family secrets, identity, and the natural world with a poetic precision that captivates readers. Her short story collection, Fen, further solidified her reputation for crafting haunting, atmospheric narratives that linger long after the final page. With a style that fuses lyrical prose and subtle horror, Johnson continues to push the limits of literary fiction, earning international acclaim for her innovative storytelling.
