Soho Square Four

by Bill Manhire (Editor)

The 1991 Soho Square is packed with the variety of current writing in English. The British Isles are generously represented: Cornwall, Scotland, England and Ireland. There is recent work from North America - Canada as well as the USA. And - a new departure - this year Soho Square goes travelling in the Pacific: to New Zealand (especially) and to Australia, Samoa and the Philippines.
