Binge has lived in Singapore, Switzerland, and Hong Kong, and is based in Edinburgh, UK, where he teaches literature and works on new books. His most recent novel, Ascension, is being published by Harper Voyager (UK) and Riverhead Books (US) in April. It is also being translated into eight other languages and has been optioned for film.


We had a great time chatting with Nick and hearing about the incredible writing journey he went on that led to his novel Ascension being fought over by publishers and being optioned for film. We also talk about exploring themes with speculative fiction, and why a good agent is so important to an author.
