Reaching Out introduces new and emerging voices in both short stories and poetry. In fiction, Joanna Campbell s Aurora and the Book Trolley sees a stricken child using a medical dictionary to spin adults into fantasy worlds way outside their comfort zones it s her way of reaching out to people , her mother confides to a confused hospital librarian. Meanwhile, Tyler Keevil s story takes on a more literal Reaching Out : as a man driving down a mountainside picks up a young hitchhiker with an unusual package. In poetry, Frances Spurrier s works see vodka staining light with a translucent guilt while images of the great and the good line the tube walls , before emerging out into piers of shallow chalk lit into wide bays of flint, / shifting dunes and marram grass .
