Robert Dean wins Peters Fraser + Dunlop prize for best dissertation

Warm congratulations to 2021 MA graduate Robert Dean, who has won the Peters Fraser + Dunlop (PFD) Prize for best MA dissertation (Fiction) for his entry Leviathan.

Peters Fraser + Dunlop is one of the longest-established literary and talent agencies in London.

PFD agent Kate Evans commented, “In a field of wonderfully original entries from talented new writers, Robert Dean’s LEVIATHAN stood out to me from the first page. Strange, dark, carefully observed, and genuinely funny, I can’t wait to work with him on what I think will be a very special debut.”
