York Literary Review

York Literary Review is an annual creative writing anthology from York St John University, designed to showcase diverse work from talented writers. Since its inception in 2016, the review has featured trailblazing fiction, non-fiction and poetry, selected by students on YSJ’s MA Publishing course, including up-and-coming Northern literary voices – but accepting (and receiving) submissions from every corner of the world.

In this tenth-anniversary edition, thirty-four authors and poets have written around the theme of fragments – every piece individual, a fragment of the person who produced it – culminating in a cohesive collection of work with a variety of topics, including memories of the past, lives lived and lost, and the complexities of human connection.
