An anthology of high quality prose and poetry by prizewinning authors from Wales and beyond, on the theme of Wild Unassuming Spaces. Philip Gross contributes two preview poems from his forthcoming collection for Seren, Troeon/Turnings. Thrice Wales Book of the Year winner Robert Minhinnick offers ‘Ffynnon Wen’, part of a project called Our Square Mile / Ein Milltir Sgwar, curated by Sustainable Wales, from which selection we also publish Laura Wainwright’s superb essay ‘Bird-singing Land’, which melds the poetry of Supertramp WH Davies with her experience with her children of nature in east Newport during the spring lockdown. Third in this project on wild places is Peter Finch’s psychogeographic essay on rediscovering his roots during lockdown in east Cardiff (Roath and Penylan). JL George offers a supernatural urban story, while Morgan Davies’ forthcoming novel for Victorina Press, The Burning Bracken, is previewed. And Tim Cooke’s feature-length essay explores a traumatic personal schoolboy memory, sparked off by a true crime, that finds its echoes in the media, photography, time and space.
