Bringing artistry to both verse and prose, this year’s collection blends diverse content, captivating register, tone, and style with exquisitely pertinent language. The ingenuity of these exceptional prose disclose personal tales of relationships and sorrow, of justice and equality, of friendship across generations, of war and love, of loneliness, of dramatic escape, while balancing the thin prospect of humour, change, and hope – they already belong to the classics.
