Jones, Russell Celyn (1955– ), Welsh writer, born in London and raised in Swansea. His novels include Soldiers and Innocents (1990), about an army officer who goes on the run with his child; Small Times (1992), which charts a romance between a petty thief and a successful actress; An Interference of Light (1995), describing a homosexual affair in a Welsh mining community; The Eros Hunter (1998), a gripping policier set in contemporary London; and Surface Tension (2001). These books are notable for their pungent, laconic prose and rueful interrogation of masculine values, with a particular emphasis on fathers and sons.
