Happy publication day to Dan Richards for this banger of a book. It's funny & moving & generously various in its voices –– a journey after dark in two senses.

Thanks to The Observer New Review for today's lovely review of Overnight. I was delighted that Hephzibah Anderson spoke of the book so warmly and made particular mention of the ideas of kindness and benevolence at its heart. #freewheelingcharm #overnight #danrichards #canongate #observerbooks

"How civilized to catch a train, enjoy a meal on board and then go to bed in a cozy cabin while the moonlit world zips past." Such a treat to work with Dan Richards nytimes.com/2025/05/18/opi…

Such a lovely conversation last Thursday between authors, Cal Flyn and Dan Richards, at the Mount Florida Bookshop in Glasgow. I was struck by Dan Richard’s humour and deep empathy towards those who toil away throughout the night to make the world both safe and function properly
