About the author

Trent Lewin

Trent Lewin is a Canadian fiction writer. His work explores belonging, identity, and the pressures in human lives and environmental systems. His stories move between realism and estrangement, fixing on otherness in ordinary settings and relationships.

His fiction has been recognised by respected North American journals and contests, including major wins, finalist placements, and distinguished selections. His work has appeared in literary magazines known for publishing important fiction and has been shortlisted and honoured in competitions judged by established writers and editors.

Lewin’s writing is shaped by a lifelong attention to how people navigate identities, whether that be as immigrants or witnesses, or the reality of the other. It is also influenced by a science and engineering background and a search for truth in the scientific world mirrored through exploration in fiction.

Lewin is currently at work on several short story projects and developing longer fiction. He is assembling a book of short stories and is working on two novels. He is open to literary representation for book-length work.

He lives and writes in Canada.
