Editing Welsh literature in English (section)

=== Fiction ===
Amongst more recent Welsh writers in English, [[Niall Griffiths]] is notable for his novels ''[[Grits (novel)|Grits]]'' (2000) and ''Sheepshagger'' (2001), which portray a grittier side to Welsh literature; and [[Malcolm Pryce]] who has written a number of humorous send ups of ''[[hardboiled|noir]]'', such as ''Aberystwyth Mon Amour'' (2001). Both of these writers were born in England, but have Welsh roots and are now Wales based, and write much on Welsh subject matter. [[Nikita Lalwani]] is originally from Rajasthan in India, but was raised in Wales, and her novel ''[[Gifted (novel)|Gifted]]'' (2007) was nominated for the [[Man Booker Prize]]. [[Trezza Azzopardi]]'s debut novel ''[[The Hiding Place (Azzopardi novel)|The Hiding Place]]'' (2000) was also nominated for the Booker Prize, and the [[Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize]], winning the latter. It is the story of the Maltese community in Cardiff. [[Jan Morris]] is better known as a non-fiction writer, but she has written some fiction too: her novel ''Hav'' won the 2007 [[Arthur C. Clarke Award]]. [[Brian John]] came to creative writing late, after a career in university teaching and academic research.  His eight-novel [[Angel Mountain Saga]], set in north Pembrokeshire in the Regency and early Victorian period, is effectively a portrayal of "Mother Wales" in the persona of the heroine Martha Morgan.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.societyofauthors.org/writer-Profile?itemID=4784|title=Members – The Society of Authors|website=societyofauthors.org}}</ref> He has also written four volumes of Pembrokeshire folk tales, and two other novels.
