Jay Mandal is from southern England. After grammar school, he joined a City bank and worked in Europe. He has written three novels and over two hundred short stories some of which feature in his three collections.

The Dandelion Clock and Precipice were reviewed in The Sunday Express; and A Different Kind of Love was reviewed by a national magazine. My short stories have been enjoyed by Ian McKellen, Hanif Kureishi, Graham Norton, Sarah Waters, and Russell T Davies.
