Gig Alert: New Welsh Review and Parthian Autumn Party!

 


Next up, next Thursday in Pontypridd... come along, all welcome!
Join us at Storyville Books in Pontypridd to celebrate the latest issue of New Welsh Review with readings from our contributors and special guests.
Founded in 1988, New Welsh Review is Wales’ foremost literary magazine in English. For over thirty years, it has been central to the Welsh literary scene in offering a vital outlet for the very best new fiction, creative non-fiction and poetry, a forum for critical debate and a rigorous and engaged reviewing culture. Today, New Welsh Review holds true to its original mission statement: to be dynamic, curious, lively and outward-looking, to commemorate the past but to celebrate contemporary excellence and new directions.
We’ll be kicking off at 7.15pm with readings from issue contributors Lesley James, Richard Huw Morgan, Natasha Gauthier, Sybilla Harvey, Sam Christie and Roberto Pastore. Special guest Crystal Jeans will also be reading from her brand-new essay collection Blueprints.

A huge round of applause goes to our winner, Gordon Harrop, who is fresh to CWC competitions. Gordon's winning entry served up some diabolical black humour, with a dark twist. Congratulations Gordon, and thank you for submitting such an entertaining and well-written piece! Gordon was joined on the podium by two of our long-standing members, Steve Pritchard and Angela Edwards Rigby, who are no strangers to receiving CWC awards and prizes.
