Heritage. It lies within our histories, cultures, traditions, within the words of our books, the lyrics of our songs and the stories we each leave behind. Brought to you by the University of Gloucestershire, Heritage: New Writing VIII is a collection of prose, poetry and artwork by students, staff and alumni of the University and its associated colleges. Covering a range of styles, genres and time periods, these are voices that will haunt, shock, entertain and inspire; voices that celebrate all we are, all we have been and all we will become.
