Oh hi. I'm Harry. I'm a writer and cultural critic from London. I like books, art, fashion, philosophy, psychology, tea, and cats, among other things. Though not necessarily in that order, and certainly not all at once.

My journalism has turned up in The Times, The Guardian, The Spectator, The New Statesman, The TLS, and other respectable corners of the press. I stand by at least some of it. I have also written short stories for titles like East of the Web; and a collection, Broken Bonds, which is currently charming (or, perhaps, alarming) several publishers. A novel, Without Wax, is also in the queue.

I have ghostwritten and edited books on various subjects, from law and finance to wellbeing and climate change. Through Zola, my literary consultancy, I had the pleasure of advising the author of Breathe In, Breathe Out, which to everyone's delight because a Sunday Times best-seller. I am also the co-founder and creative director of Sonder, a communications agency with offices in London and Paris.

For inquiries, email me directly. You can also connect with me, or merely stalk me, on Instagram, LinkedIn, Substack, and X.

Thanks for reading.
