"Mittelholzer's novels include characters and situations from a variety of places within the Caribbean. Between 19, he published twenty-one novels, and two works of non-fiction, including his autobiographical, A Swarthy Boy.
Mittelholzer left Guyana for Trinidad in 1941, eventually migrating to England in 1948, living the rest of his life there except for three years in Barbados, and a shorter period in Canada. Born in Guyana (then British Guiana) of Afro-European heritage, he began writing in 1929 and self-published his first book, Creole Chips, in 1937.
