Agent Bio

Charlie's first job in the books world was at Literary Review, where he reviewed both fiction and non-fiction and became deputy editor.

After three years he moved into agenting, first as a maternity cover at Johnson & Alcock, before moving to Ed Victor Ltd, where he spent ten years, building his list and learning from one of the greatest literary agents in the business.

He also worked on the film and TV side there, as well as handling audio and speaking engagements for the agency’s clients.

He set up his own agency in 2014, believing that independent companies have a vital role in launching new talent.

In 2022, Sam Edenborough joined as Rights Director and they renamed the agency Greyhound Literary.

Their focus is on books with international appeal, with early successes including Victoria Belim’s extraordinary memoir The Rooster House.
