Recent BA (Hons) Creative Writing graduate, Alex Callaghan, has had their debut poetry collection, 'For All the Winter Through', published by Written Off Publishing.
‘For All the Winter Through’ is a poetry collection that Alex worked on during their time at university. The story that runs through the collection is the emotional journey of Alex’s time at university, leaving home, lockdown, through to life after the pandemic. It merges the troubles and anxieties of the real world with the whimsy of the phantasmagorical through fun characters such as a toad in a top hat.
