Howard Male
Howard Male has been a painter (studying under Gillian Ayres at Winchester School of Art), a musician (described by David Quantick in the NME as ‘almost remarkable’), a word game inventor (Definitials ran in Radio Times for seven years) and a music critic (for Songlines, The Word and The Independent).
He has just completed a quartet of genre-defying novels that he describes as “either airport novels with ideas above their station, or literary novels that are having too much fun for their own good.” David Bowie had the first of these novels – Etc Etc Amen – on his "must read pile" when he died.
