The fifteen winning entries from Britain's biggest and most democratic prize for new writing. Published in association with Amnesty International, Channel 4, Waterstone's, the Herald and Sunday Herald.
In this its third year, competition for the Canongate Prize 2002 has been scorching. Entries have poured in from New York to New Guinea and, as anticipated, the fifteen winners show a magnificent range of content, style and genre. These essays, short stories and travelogues testify to the multiple paths the imagination can tread from one given theme.
In this collection established writers sit next to the new breed of literary voices. Factual or fictional, all these are outstanding pieces of writing in their own right and, as a collection form a meditation of the power of writing to change lives.
