An internationally acclaimed Sudanese novelist and medical doctor. One of the most prolific and distinctive voices in contemporary Arab fiction, Elsir is the recipient of the prestigious Katara Prize for Arabic Novel (2015) for his epistolary masterwork 366 and was shortlisted for the International Prize for Arabic Fiction 2011 for The Grub Hunter (The Hunter of the Chrysalises). He was also longlisted for Flowers Consumed by Fire (2018) and the Sheikh Zayed Book Award for Weather (Taqs). The nephew of legendary literary pioneer Tayeb Salih, his widely translated novels—including The French Perfume, Ebola 76, and The Sorcerer’s Resort—have been published in over eleven global languages. Renowned for his biting tragicomic wit, eccentric characterizations, and poignant psychological realism, Elsir masterfully captures the delicate balance between human vulnerability, resilience, and absurdity in modern Sudanese society.
