George Szirtes shortlisted for the Slightly Foxed Prize 2019
George Szirtes' hybrid work of memoir and biography, THE PHOTOGRAPHER AT SIXTEEN, has been shortlisted for the 2019 Slightly Foxed Best First Biography Prize!
Flowing backwards through time, and through a tumultuous period of European history, THE PHOTOGRAPHER AT SIXTEEN is a tender and yet unsparing autobiographical journey. In July 1975, Magda Szirtes died in the ambulance on the way to hospital after she had tried to take her own life. She was fifty-one years old. The Photographer at Sixteen spools into the past, through her exile in England, her flight with her husband and two young boys from Hungary in 1956 and her time in two concentration camps, her girlhood as an ambitious photographer, and the unknowable fate of her vanished family in Transylvania. The woman who emerges – with all her contradictions – is utterly captivating. What were the terrors and obsessions that drove her? The Photographer at Sixteen reveals a life from the depths of its final days to the comparable safety of its childhood. It is a book born of curiosity, of guilt and of love.

George Szirtes awarded James Tait Black Prize in biography for THE PHOTOGRAPHER AT SIXTEEN
Judge Dr Simon Cooke said: "George Szirtes' reverse chronological portrait of the woman who was his mother is a piercingly beautiful memoir-as-prose-poem, as generous as it is scrupulous in its searching meditation on a death and life, on memory and history, and on how we imagine the lives of those we love."
