Words to Tie to Bricks

Broken hearts. Broken worlds. Broken windows. There's something for everyone in this collection of new work by teenage writers, compiled over the course of an intensive creative writing workshop at the Centre for Talented Youth, Ireland (CTYI) 2013 summer programme. The prose, poetry and drama in Words to Tie to Bricks feature (among other things) beautiful gas masks, disastrous relationships, ghostly husbands, mysterious encounters in Florence, ominous ski slopes, birds without mittens, painfully awkward moments, and immortal jellyfish. CTYI is proud to present an anthology that showcases the talent, creativity and hard work of these students. We hope you enjoy reading it. The proceeds from this anthology will go to support St Michael's House, which provides crucial services and resources to those with intellectual disabilities.
