Jody Kahn is a literary agent with Brandt & Hochman Literary Agents. She represents both literary and upmarket fiction, as well as narrative nonfiction; across all categories she enjoys books that are beautifully written while also containing a rich storyline, and sheÕs especially looking for deeply drawn characters and voice-driven narratives. Dark and edgy is always a plus, as is humor. SheÕs also interested in untold stories and misunderstood populations. In nonfiction, sheÕs seeking narrative related to sports, food, history, science, pop-culture, literary memoir and journalism. Above all, she wants to be gripped by what sheÕs reading, and taken into a new and riveting world, one that touches her with layers of complexity and does not easily let go.
