About the Book

Open this book, and you will enter a world refracted in a prism with thirty-two polished surfaces. A gem, cut in the Eurocrat diamond district, emitting multifarious literature through its many faces. Some reflect the wistful melancholy of the Brussels drizzle, some tear open the sky with a bolt of genius that will have you groping for your sunglasses. A brain drain of anglophone and anglophile writers, itinerant and settled, share and sharpen their largely expat outpourings of human love and beastly bombings, reassuring community and bewildering exile. The private explodes in public, the petty corrupts the grand, the funny elbows the dire--in the heart of the old world, lives and stories converge and drift apart. This collection portrays our troubled and exciting times through short story, poem, script and novel excerpt of both seasoned pros and promising hacks. Whether brutally marooned on the damp flatlands, or cosily embedded in red-brick ale houses, their dreams and nightmares shine from this beloved, accursed, ramshackle Europe of ours. Come inside.

Review :
"This stunning anthology will not only appeal to those familiar with Brussels incognito, but also to those with an appreciation for divine inspiration, as international writers engage with a capital city and its unique way of life." ⎯Brussels Express "The Anthology is made up of fifty-five contributions by thirty-four authors (including award-winning Jeanie Keogh and Colin Walsh) from nineteen countries. It dabbles in poetry, prose and script; fiction and non-fiction, packing in a number of themes: fantasy, love, death, violence, humiliation, humour, devotion, grief, loss, history, memory.... The Anthology has something for everyone, and it is a tribute to this great city to read the beauty of English embraced by many nationalities and cultures." --Together Magazine "Over fifty contributions contain some real gems. Short film scripts, non-fiction pieces, fairy tales and poems are united in their unique portrayal of the surreal aspect of Brussels exploring different dimensions of the human condition.... While generous with light and humorous everyday topics, The Circle also respectfully takes on complicated and controversial issues like terrorism, race, religion, diversity and grief...." --Pleiades Book Review
