The Word's the Thing

One part of Birmingham’s contribution to 2008 as England's national Year of Reading was to encourage large numbers of people to read similar things on the premise that it then becomes much easier for them to have some ‘reading in common’ to talk about…..to be part of an ongoing set of conversations across the city and beyond.

A number of new poems and very short fictional ‘tales’ were written especially for this purpose. These were donated, to be freely distributed as widely as possible to people in Birmingham and beyond. These writings were produced essentially for an adult audience, but have general appeal within that. We hope that you enjoy reading them; discover something to think/talk about; and that you will want to share them with others in Birmingham or elsewhere.
