In These Strange Times

The Covid-19 pandemic affected writers differently. Some found the imposed lockdown liberated them from other day-to-day activities and responsibilities, giving them the time to write. Others found it restricted their creativity.

In this anthology, twenty writers have produced twenty-six Covid-inspired pieces of poetry and prose reflecting their thoughts, concerns and hopes for the future. In these strange times, what is normality?

Compiled by Steve Bowkett, this anthology includes work by:
Ben Leach, Sue Short, Alison Ringrose, Denise Telford, Jilly Funnell, Mark Henderson, Penelope Alexander, Edward Cantner, Jean Eaton, Bruce Dapple, Kate Pashley, John Hope, Rosemary Gray, Sue Gerrard, Sylvie Field, Creana Bosac, Toni Allen, Jennifer Margrave, Carol Hurley and Daisy Watkin.
