New Writing

The latest UEA Creative Writing anthologies have just been published, showcasing new work by over sixty recent graduates of the MA in the Creative Writing. Published in four volumes representing the four strands of the MA – Prose Fiction, Poetry, Scriptwriting, Biography & Creative Non-Fiction – the anthologies are edited by the students themselves and published in association with Egg Box Publishing, a Norwich-based independent publisher. UEA alumna Anjali Joseph, author of ‘Saraswati Park’ and ‘Another Country’, has written this year’s foreword to the Prose Fiction anthology, and each of the volumes is introduced by tutors from the MA programme: Henry Sutton, Jean McNeil, Sophie Robinson, Kathryn Hughes and Val Taylor. The anthologies were recently launched with student readings at events in the UEA Drama Studio and the LRB Bookshop in London and can be purchased directly from Egg Box at www.eggboxpublishing.com/store.
