Böcker av York Centre for Writing

York Literary Review is an annual creative writing anthology designed to showcase diverse work from talented writers. Since its inception in 2016, the review has featured trailblazing fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and prose.This year's beautiful collection of writing includes thirty-five talented authors from around the world, who have responded to the theme of 'voices' with pieces including a diverse range of subjects, such as voices from the past, the voice of trees, and absence of voice.* * *"The world of the twenty-first century, awash with social media and 24-hour newsreels, is bombarded by voices, all vying for attention, a colossal storm of endless communication. It is easy to get lost. To have your voice subsumed by countless others. The anthology's theme grew out of this concern but manifested in other wonderful ways too ... There are personal memoirs. There are voices within landscapes. There are ruminations on how voice connects to personal identity. This year's anthology contains creative writing of great power and significance. I congratulate the team and thank the contributors for giving us their voices. We are all the better for it!"- Dr Rob O'Connor
