Stephen Grant is a London-based novelist, educator, and trade unionist. He is the author of two novels: the award- winning campus novel A MOMENT MORE SUBLIME (Upper West Side Philosophers, Inc., 2014), which cost him his job as lecturer of philosophy at Richmond upon Thames College and was short-listed for The Guardian's Not the Booker Prize in 2015; and, most recently, SPANISH LIGHT (Upper West Side Philosophers, Inc., 2018), the quintessential, thrilling European novel about the 2008 global economic crisis and its aftermath.
