Inspired? Get Writing!

Thought-provoking, amusing, intriguing, disturbing: all these words will come to mind when browsing through this lavishly illustrated publication. The result of an ongoing collaboration between the National Galleries of Scotland, the English-Speaking Union Scotland and the Scottish Poetry Library, it brings together work from young, aspiring and established writers, all of whom have been inspired by works from the National Galleries of Scotland's collection. A celebration of contemporary writing, this third anthology is a rich distillation from almost 2,000 entries to the 'Inspired? Get Writing!' competition, and proves to be a real feast for not only the mind and the eye but also the heart.
