£8.00

AUTHOR: DR SHEREE MACK

Drawing upon her rich heritage within her ancestors as well as creative influences, Sheree conjures layers, collages, and palimpsests to destabilise the system, language and the ways things be. Because there’s always another way; creative fugitivity. 

This chapbook is part of our autumn 2024 series. Chapbooks were traditionally printed and sold between the 17th and 19th centuries and took the form of a small printed booklet, usually containing a selection of poetry or fiction. The aim was to make literature affordable and accessible. You can read more about them here. This series of feral chapbooks emerges from this older tradition, offering powerful words and untamed reflections on a range of themes.

This A5 chapbook is 30 pages, printed in the UK on 100% recycled paper using vegetable-based inks.
