The UTS Writers’ Anthology sits on an interesting precipice, one no less interesting because it sits there with such grace and style.
The success of the anthology – and of Seeds and Skeletons – is not only in its polished appearance and experienced veneer, it also reminds us that new writing is exciting and deserves readers. As Graeme Simsion says, “There are rewards and surprises for the reader throughout the UTS Anthology. The writers’ craft will only strengthen with time, but here is how they chose to use it first.”
‘The UTS Anthology, which started in 1982, has been an integral aspect of our literary landscape, providing highly gifted and mostly young writers - Nam Le is one often mentioned - from one of Australia's longest standing writing schools with a place to publish.’
Literary journals provide quirky proof of print's durability
‘the writing, often frank, is marked by tenderness and generosity of spirit’
