New Welsh Review 136 (Winter 2024): East Asia

Female-led literature with an emphasis on place, nature and authenticity in nonfiction, narrative voice in fiction, ideas for our times in the literary essay, and illustrative panache overall. Originating in Wales and with international ambition. Here we bring together the best of NWR's online essays and review-essays within a showcase of new work previewing forthcoming titles from some of this country's key English-language publishers. Plus, there's new work from Phuoc Tien, Susan Karen Burton, Jayne Joso and Deidre Brennan, and 'Hi-Mawari', the lost Welsh story of Lafcadio Hearn (alias Koizumi Yakumo).
