R.A. Dalkey was born in Cape Town. After selling hand-written newspapers to classmates in primary school, then winning awards for lucid essays whilst studying journalism at Rhodes University, it was inevitable that he would make a living out of words. Under his real name (Richard Asher), this sport and travel addict has been published by titles including GQ, Reader’s Digest, The Sunday Times, Australian International Traveller, Reuters, Autosport and Sports Illustrated. Dalkey has always favoured an immersive approach to his work. He's driven outback trucks in Australia, crashed racing cars in Russia and slept rough in Jo'burg. He's been arrested in Mongolia, mugged in Barcelona and glared at by monks in Cyprus. He once conducted a two-year experiment trying to be a professional golfer. Apart from growing up in the euphoria of post-Apartheid South Africa, he lived in the USA, Australia and the UK before settling in Austria in 2016. Dalkey also narrates his own audiobooks. He's on X @mygreenjacket and Instagram @worldsleeper.
