Lauren Beukes is a South African author known for her genre-bending fiction that blends speculative elements with sharp social commentary. Born in Johannesburg in 1976, she gained international acclaim with her 2013 novel The Shining Girls, a time-travel thriller about a serial killer and the woman who survives him. Beukes’s work often explores themes of identity, violence, and transformation, with a strong focus on women’s stories. Her other novels include Moxyland, Zoo City (which won the Arthur C. Clarke Award) and Afterland, a post-pandemic thriller. Lauren's latest book, the multiverse-lost-mother-thriller, BRIDGE is out now!
