Agent Bio

Emma Patterson represents fiction ranging from dark, literary novels to historical and upmarket fiction, narrative non-fiction that includes memoir, investigative journalism, popular history, and select children’s projects.

She is looking for fresh, lyrical, and voice-driven writing, suspenseful plots, emotional narratives, transporting settings, and unforgettable characters.

Books that grapple with the dynamics of relationships (of all kinds, but especially from a female perspective), have a grounded speculative bent, or explore the current cultural landscape are all of perennial interest.
