Synopsis

Results from the 2021 Charles Brasch Young Writers' Essay Competition. The latest reviews of New Zealand books as well as stunning new writing from established literary heavyweights and thrilling new voices - the work promises to range from the wry, ludic and lyrical, to gripping body horror as social commentary, which is at once comic and unsettling. Art by Claire Beynon, Ewan McDougall (cover artist) and Bridget Reweti
