AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The thirteenth edition of Monash University’s creative writing annual collects work inspired by this year’s theme: Chimera. 

'Chimera is something desired but always out of reach. The faceless figures of dreams, the disappearing fountain of an unrelenting desert: for those willing to make the journey, chimera exists as hope unrealised. 

'This edition of Verge includes a range of original works from established and emerging writers. ' (Publication summary)
