Elvin James Mensah is a 27 year old British-Ghanaian writer born and raised in South East London.
He received his Bachelor of Arts in English and Journalism from Bournemouth University, where he began writing his first novel. When not writing about blackness and queerness, he can be found voraciously explaining either the interconnectivity of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to his long-suffering friends, or the everlasting cultural impact of the Spice Girls. His other hobbies include drinking copious amounts of Capri Sun and re-reading Donna Tartt and Hanya Yanigihara novels.
His debut novel, Small Joys, was pre-empted by Chris White at Scribner, and was published in April 2023.
