I used to know him. He's a local radio film critic, and I did film writing for some local magazines for a few years at the start of the 90s. Sadly lost touch with him and his family.
He's my favourite author, by a long way. I re-read all his short story collections, in order, last year. He's the sort of writer that pulls you into his 'world', and it can be very hard to move onto something else. After I finished my re-read, I kept wanting to return to his work - doesn't help the to-be-read pile!
Crying shame that more of his stories haven't been adapted for the screen - an anthology type film would be ideal.
