Graham Colin Swift, born on May 4, 1949, is an English author known for his novels, short stories, and poetry. He won the Booker Prize in 1996 for his novel Last Orders, a somewhat controversial win because his earlier work, Waterland, was seen by many as deserving the award. Swift faced accusations of borrowing elements from William Faulkner's As I Lay Dying for his writing. Waterland is widely regarded as one of the best post-World War II novels, and it was adapted into a film by Stephen Gyllenhaal in 1992, starring Jeremy Irons.
