Gillian Spraggs was born in England in 1952. She has a PhD from the University of Cambridge for work on seventeenth-century literature and has published a number of poems and several critical essays, including one on Sappho, and another on the poetry of Sylvia Townsend Warner and Valentine Ackland. She is also the author of Outlaws and Highwaymen: the Cult of the Robber in England from the Middle Ages to the Nineteenth Century, a cultural history of the English highwaymen. She spends most of her time reading, and much of the rest hunting through second-hand bookshops. She lives in Leicestershire, in a house with far too many books, and is working on a volume of translations of poems by Renée Vivien.
