On Thursday evening 5th October, friends and family of both old and new Huntly Writers met in Orb’s Bookshop in Huntly, to celebrate the launch of our new anthology entitled ‘Speaking Back’. And an excellent evening was had by all…
This new anthology showcases poetry from both members of Huntly Writers and some recipients of the Brian Nisbet Poetry Award. These poems come from both emerging and well-established writers, many of whom are published in both books and literary publications, Their voices are at times funny, and at others deeply moving.
This diverse anthology shares our varied life experiences while being anchored in the languages and communities of our region.
