Beyond / Tu Hwnt - anthology of Welsh Deaf and Disabled Writers cover

A bold collection of essays on disability and deafness in 21st century Britain.

For Deaf and Disabled writers, the context is immutable. Deaf and Disabled people are currently being scapegoated, silenced and dehumanised in the media and by politicians. Our human and legal rights are being violated. Disabled people are being forced to fight for our survival. Beyond is a collection of work by Welsh Deaf and Disabled...For Deaf and Disabled writers, the context is immutable. Deaf and Disabled people are currently being scapegoated, silenced and dehumanised in the media and by politicians. Our human and legal rights are being violated. Disabled people are being forced to fight for our survival. Beyond is a collection of work by Welsh Deaf and Disabled writers writing back.

Beyond / Tu Hwnt is a communities-uniting collection of contemporary Welsh Deaf and Disabled voices.

By celebrating the diversity and uniqueness of our voices, we aim to fill the void where our stories and experiences always should have existed.

Our aim in bringing our poetry, non-fiction and fiction together is to show that our work exists in all its power beyond the barriers and that it always has existed here in Wales. A collection of work by Deaf and Disabled writers shouldn’t be radical, yet it is.
