As Birmingham’s contribution to 2008 as England's national Year of Reading a number of new poems and very short fictional ‘tales’ were written especially to help promote reading to new readers. 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.
The Poems: Background
These were written in deliberate
attempts to cover a range of lengths and styles. Some are meant to be taken
quite lightly; others are meant to be lingered over. The people involved in
bringing these poems together have donated them to promote reading
in Birmingham, and beyond.
