Works
editWe say w/r her first book: "Since then, she has published another five novels, one play, and one collection of short stories." That needs update, preferably with some rewording to place it in time or to make it timeless.
Kate Atkinson at the Internet Speculative Fiction Database.
Her 2013 novel Life After Life is her first catalogued by ISFDB
where it is tagged "historical fantasy" (and "rebirth" but that is a new tag created for this book!). I did not add this External link but someone else may disagree. Anyway, that may change with her next book or if the DB adds Human Croquet (our article shows that it should) or adds single stories from Not the End of the World (short story collection) (as it usually does).
After skimming this article and glancing at the book articles I wonder why the text does not call her a crime (or detective or mystery) and none of those genres is mentioned. (The infobox labels here crime fiction and the biog is in Category:English crime fiction writers).)
