Hello dtayl-ga,
It appears that Vikram Seth is his own agent in the U.S. and England
for his book, An Equal Music. (The Marsh Agency is his agent with
respect to several translations in other countries.)

Indeed, it seems that Seth is his own agent for several of his books,
with the exception of From Heaven Lake.

Another page on The Marsh Agency web site, with links to the foregoing
information, indicates that Seth is "represented by: Speedwell
Securities Ltd". However, this appears to be the only page on the Web
that mentions "Speedwell Securities". Thus, I assume that Seth uses
this name with respect to his self-representation (much in the way
that a person can also be a one-person corporation).

For some time, Giles Gordon of Curtis Brown Group Ltd. was Seth's
agent.

It is possible that Seth still has some association with Curtis Brown,
since one of the clients of The Marsh Agency is Livingston
Cooke/Curtis Brown Canada, which suggests that The Marsh Agency has
some connection with Curtis Brown in the UK as well.
