Luke Turner is a writer and editor based in London. He co-founded the influential music website The Quietus and has contributed to the Guardian, Dazed & Confused, Vice, NME, Q, Mojo, Monocle, Nowness, Somesuch Stories and the BBC among others. His first book, Out of the Woods, was shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize.
His most recent book Men At War explores a wartime experience that embraces sex, lust and the body as much as tactics and weaponry. Part-memoir, part-historical exploration of British Second World War masculinity and sexuality, Turner argues that the only way we can really understand the Second World War is to get to grips with the complexity of the lives and identities of those who fought and endured it.
