A short story by Litt was included in the anthology "All Hail the New Puritans" (2000), edited by Matt Thorne and Nicholas Blincoe, and he has edited "The Outcry" (2001), Henry James's last completed novel, for Penguin in the UK. In 2003 he was nominated by Granta magazine as one of the 20 "Best of Young British Novelists", although his work since then has met with mixed reviews, one reviewer in The Guardian writing that his novel "I Play the Drums in a Band Called Okay" "goes on --- and on, and on. There is plenty of story here, but little plot, and no tension."' (Wiki) ***'"Ghost Story" speaks of love and pain, intimacy and estrangement, inspired by events in the author's life - themselves the subject of the non-fiction 'preface' to the book - this is an honest and intensely emotional exploration of what it means to love and to mourn. It is Toby Litt's finest novel to date.'
