The entries cover a range of topics from politics and historical events to personal stories.
Programme Director for the Creative Writing BA at St Mary’s Jonathan Gibbs, said, “What I love about the work in this chapbook is that it covers everything you might want as a reader. There is writing that is vital, passionate and personal, politically and socially engaged, historically aware, poetic, funny and intelligent. I’m immensely proud of all the students.”
The anthology can be read on the St Mary’s website while more information about the BA course can be found online or by emailing jonathan.gibbs@stmarys.ac.uk.
