SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2026 WOMEN’S PRIZE FOR FICTION
“A gentle and compassionate novel that explores the nuances of queer love and friendship.” The Guardian, Derek Owusu
“a tenderly written meditation on art, love and life that’s as much about the search for self as for connection.” Marie Claire, editor’s pick
“Kelly writes the messiness of power dynamics well.” Telegraph
A creative writing academic falls under the spell of his colleague, a poet whose life seems to shimmer with a freedom he cannot reach. At home, there is Michael: beautiful, steady, safe. But the poet is something else entirely—she is restless, luminous, untouchable.
As his fixation deepens, the boundaries between admiration, desire and possession begin to blur. The poet, his Kingfisher, draws him further from the life he knows, into a world shaped by art, longing and illusion.
Then illness arrives, closing in on them all, and the tightrope he’s been walking starts to sway.
Kingfisher is a beautifully crafted novel of queer desire and ambition, grief and creativity, and the fine lines between intimacy and obsession.
