John Alfred Atkins (26 May 1916 – 31 March 2009) was a prolific British writer, playwright, poet and novelist. ==Career== Atkins graduated from the Bristol University in 1938. Subsequently he worked for Mass Observation and later as Assistant and Literary Editor of the left-wing newspaper ''Tribune'', before his call up for war service arrived in 1943. At ''Tribune'' his place was taken by George Orwell. After the war, he worked as a critic specialising in analysing the work of 20th-century writers. He taught in different parts of the world, including Sudan and Poland, and his erudition and breadth of knowledge was immense. He wrote several books for Calder Publishing and other publishers and for the last thirty years of his life was spent quietly in East Anglia. He was the author of many literary bibliographies (including J. B. Priestley, Graham Greene, Arthur Koestler and Ernest Hemingway), and of ''The British Spy Novel'', an analysis of the genre, and the multi-volume ''Sex in Literature'' series.〔Suzanne G.
