Life and career

Joseph was born in Kottayam, Kerala, and grew up in Chennai. He is a graduate of Loyola College, Chennai, and dropped out of Madras Christian College to become a staff writer at Society magazine. He is a former editor of OPEN magazine, and a columnist for The International New York Times and The Hindustan Times. In 2007, he was a Chevening Scholar. He currently lives in Delhi. His debut novel Serious Men (2010) won The Hindu Literary Prize and the PEN/Open Book Award. The PEN jury described him as "...that rare bird who can wildly entertain the reader as forcefully as he moves them."

His second novel, The Illicit Happiness of Other People, was published in September 2012. The semi-autobiographical novel was described by The Wall Street Journal as a work that "injects dark, rueful laughter into an immensely touching story of loss”.

Resignation

On January 2014, Joseph resigned as editor of Open magazine. Joseph's former colleague Hartosh Singh Bal wrote that while he appreciated the considerable independence Joseph would give to those working with him, he was also disappointed that Joseph did not stand up with greater strength to unreasonable demands and pressures of Open's management.
