![]() ![]() Funny Queer, a hand-sewn limited edition collection of stories, was published by the Aleph Press in 2021. Midland: A Novel Out of Time was shortlisted for the 2015 Gordon Burn Prize and his short story, ‘Home Death’, was longlisted for the Galley Beggar Press Short Story Prize 2019/20. Gareth Gavin is a writer from Birmingham. Dreamy, poignant, and revelatory, Never Was is a bewitching and inventive novel by an inimitable voice in literary fiction. Taking us from bus shelters to playgrounds to McDonalds, from the depth of a salt mine to a nightclub toilet, Never Was is Daniel’s story as told to their friend Fin, in a world of soap operas, sunglasses, newspaper clippings and Princess Diana. Gareth Gavin, author of queer bildungsroman Never Was, speaks to So Mayer about his beautifully strange novel of grief, addiction and working-class masculinity. ![]()
